HACCP Certification
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) is an internationally recognized standard that defines the requirements for the effective control of food safety. It is a generic framework that may be applied to any food business, be a manufacturer, ingredient provider, food service organization, transporter, retailer or warehouse. It is a key element of the CODEX General Principles of Food Hygiene. (HACCP meaning?)
HACCP is built around seven principles:
- Conduct Hazard Analysis of biological, chemical or physical food hazards
- Determine critical control points
- Establish critical control limits, for example, minimum cooking temperature and time
- Establish a system to monitor control of critical control points
- Establish corrective actions
- Establish procedure for verification to confirm that the HACCP system is working effectively
- Establish documentation and record keeping
Why HACCP certification?
Certification demonstrates to customers that you completely understand the risks and hazards and have a system in place to control and monitor the same. That way the hazards don’t end up in the consumer’s food.
Compliance to HACCP criteria will:
- Give you confidence to compete with global brands
- Signal to the customer that you care for the safety of the food
- Open new business opportunities
