What is ISO 22000?
ISO 22000 addresses the risks associated with foodborne hazards. Implementing the standard ensures that the interdependent methods between food producers, suppliers, and customers are understood and managed. ISO 22000 therefore ensures the integrity of the food supply chain from ‘farm to fork’. It is not only a legal requirement, but a helpful tool to ensure safe practices are followed within your business. Food related businesses across the world use the framework of ISO 22000 and HACCP as the basic tools for their food safety management programmes.
Why seek ISO 22000 Certification
Obtaining a certificate from a third party certification body demonstrates that you have addressed, implemented, controlled and maintain a FSMS base on the principles of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP). ISO 27001 provides a framework to give assurance that an organization information security measures are effective.
