FSSC 22000 Food Safety Certification
FSSC 22000 is an internationally recognised food safety certification scheme designed to help organisations effectively manage food safety risks throughout the food supply chain.
The scheme provides a structured approach to establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving a Food Safety Management System (FSMS). It incorporates ISO 22000, sector-specific prerequisite programmes (PRPs), and additional FSSC requirements to address food safety risks relevant to different industry sectors.
FSSC 22000 is widely used by organisations involved in the production and supply of food and related products and can help businesses demonstrate their ability to consistently provide safe and compliant products.
