A few words about our company

Established in 1992 International Food Technology is an American owned company that has grown to be an internationally recognized consulting firm serving major clients exporting and importing foods and other items from the Asian region. Headquartered in Bangkok, IFT is centrally located to provide cost-effective, ‘on-the-ground’ solutions to your food safety and quality issues. This minimizes the need for you to send your valuable staff overseas.

At its Bangkok office IFT employs five food technologists and three administrative staff to serve our customers. Additionally, IFT maintains representative offices in the USA and Vietnam. Thus food safety and consulting services are aimed at meeting international standards for all markets, be they Europe, USA, Australia or other parts of the world. 

In July 2010 IFT became a business of JBT FoodTech, a leading global technology solutions provider to the food processing industry.
