ABSTRACT
Recently, along with the emergence of food scandals, food supply chains have to face with ever-increasing
pressure from compliance with food quality and safety regulations and standards. This paper aims to
explore critical factors of compliance risk in food supply chain with an illustrated case in Vietnamese
seafood industry. To this end, this study takes advantage of both primary and secondary data sources
through a comprehensive literature research of industrial and scientific papers, combined with expert
interview. Findings showed that there are three main critical factor groups influencing on compliance risk
including challenges originating from Vietnamese food supply chain itself, characteristics of regulation
and standards, and business environment. Furthermore, author proposed enablers to eliminate
compliance risks to food supply chain managers as well as recommendations to government and other
influencers and supporters.
