Food safety guarantees that the consumed foods are absolutely harmless and is directly related to food security and public health. Therefore, ensuring food safety all along the food chain is a shared responsibility, the main responsibility being for the economic stakeholders. The public sector is responsible for implementing public policies ensuring the maximum food safety, preventing the increase of foodborne diseases which hamper the social and economic development and affect the local economy resulting in a negative effect on trade and tourism. The purpose of the research was to understand the factors that had an effect on the implementation process of the food safety policy in Metropolitan Lima, within the framework of a public health protection policy, which addresses the Food Safety Act. The hypothesis proposed that the implementation process of the food safety policy in Metropolitan Lima in 2014-2016 has been varied and insufficient to produce changes in the behavior of the target group and ensure consumers’ health and safety, due to the favorable or unfavorable influence of a set of regulatory and non-regulatory factors. From the analysis, it was concluded that the implementation process of the food safety policy has been carried out in an insufficient manner due to regulatory factors, such as the lack of prioritization of the treatment of the problem and the socioeconomic conditions of the target group that prevent a change in their behavior. In addition, the influence of non-regulatory factors that have had a negative effect and prevented to achieve the objectives set out in the standard, and the lack of financial resources, minimum level of attention and a null specialization by the press to deal with this issue, among other aspects.
