Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a systematic preventive approach to food safety. It focuses on identifying, evaluating, and controlling biological, chemical, and physical hazards throughout the food production and handling process. HACCP is recognized globally and is often a mandatory requirement for food businesses involved in manufacturing, packaging, catering, or distribution.

Implementing HACCP not only ensures safer food production but also improves operational efficiency by preventing contamination and reducing waste. It instills a culture of hygiene, documentation, and accountability within the organization.

At Startup Bharat, we assist businesses in developing and implementing HACCP systems that comply with national and international food safety regulations, such as FSSAI, FDA, and Codex Alimentarius. Our step-by-step guidance ensures your team understands the seven principles of HACCP and applies them effectively.

With HACCP Certification, your business gains a competitive edge in the food industry. Whether you’re supplying to retailers, export markets, or institutional buyers, certification reflects your commitment to food safety and quality.
