<div><strong>Save Real Honey – Support the Global Honey Integrity Council (GHIC)</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Protect Beekeepers. Defend Consumers. Restore Trust in Honey.</strong>

</div>

<div>Honey is one of the most frequently adulterated foods in the world.

</div>

<div>Across international markets, large quantities of cheap, manipulated, and fraudulently labeled products are being sold as honey. Honest beekeepers are struggling to compete with prices that often do not reflect the true cost of producing genuine honey. At the same time, consumers are losing confidence in a product that has been valued for thousands of years.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The Global Honey Integrity Council (GHIC) was founded to change this.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We are an independent international initiative bringing together beekeepers, scientists, food experts, consumer advocates, and industry stakeholders to establish transparency, accountability, and scientific integrity in the honey market.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>What We Aim to Achieve</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Independent Honey Monitoring</strong>

</div>

<div>We purchase honey products anonymously from supermarkets and online retailers around the world and submit them to independent laboratories for authenticity testing.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Scientific Transparency</strong>

</div>

<div>We support the development and evaluation of reliable analytical methods and encourage open scientific discussion based on evidence rather than commercial interests.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Consumer Information</strong>

</div>

<div>We publish understandable information about honey authenticity, food fraud, and market developments so consumers can make informed purchasing decisions.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Support for Honest Beekeepers</strong>

</div>

<div>We give genuine honey producers a voice and help create fair market conditions where quality and authenticity are rewarded.

</div>

<div>International Cooperation

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Honey fraud is a global problem. We work across borders with beekeeping organizations, researchers, regulators, and policymakers to improve standards and enforcement.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Why We Need Your Support</strong>
