Increasing consumer demand for safe food has led many companies to develop food quality management systems and food safety management systems, based on the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) approach. In 2001, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) started the development of an auditable standard for the food industry, building on HACCP’s role in food safety management systems. This resulted in the newly formed ISO 22000 standard, which defines food safety management requirements for companies that need to meet and exceed global food safety regulations. Download ISO 22000 brochure It speeds and simplifies processes without compromising other quality or safety management systems and can be used by all organisations in the supply chain, from farming to food services, to processing, transportation and storage, through to packaging and retail. ISO 22000 creates a harmonised food safety standard that is accepted the world over. By integrating multiple principals, methodologies and applications, ISO 22000 is easier to understand, apply and recognise. That makes it more efficient and effective as an entry-to-market tool than previous combinations of national standards.
