Video: Gluten-Free Certifications

Gluten-free has gone from a trend to a mainstream expectation, as consumers look for options across myriad categories. While federal regulations provide some guidance for marketing and labeling gluten-free products, certifications can take a company to another level.

In this INSIDER exclusive video, Allen Rekunyk, vice president of business development at Allergen Control Group, the managers of Gluten-Free Certification Program, addressed different types of certifications and the benefits that come along with them. We’ll continue the conversation at SupplySide West in Las Vegas, at a special workshop, “Exploring Gluten-Free Solutions,” Wednesday, Oct. 5. Additional topics will include:

• The current gluten-free landscape at retail

• Nutrition considerations in product development

• Formulation considerations and ingredient options
