Founded in 1964 we were established to advance the science of 'food science and technology', its education and application, for the benefit, safety and health of the public.
We are independent of government, industry, lobby or special interest groups and the Institute has charitable status.

Like medicine and other science disciplines (e.g. biology or chemistry) food science and technology is a profession. It covers a wide range of complex skills and disciplines and is based on a recognised body of learning.
Our members are drawn from all over the world from all ages and backgrounds including industry (manufacturing, retailing and food service), universities and schools, government, research and development, quality assurance and food law enforcement.
