ISO 22000:2018 Certification | Food Safety Management System (FSMS)
ISO 22000:2018 is an internationally recognized standard that provides a robust framework for managing food safety risks across the supply chain. It is designed to identify and control potential hazards by implementing preventive measures, monitoring activities, analyzing results, and driving continual improvement in food safety practices.
Today, food safety is a global concern that goes beyond individual consumers. Foodborne illnesses not only threaten human health but also cause immense reputational and financial damage to food businesses and even national economies. Every year, countless cases of food poisoning erode consumer trust and brand image worldwide.
To guarantee food safety from “Farm to Fork,” organizations across the food chain must proactively manage risks. This includes everyone from restaurants, catering services, packaging suppliers, and equipment manufacturers to pest control, transport, and logistics companies. ISO 22000 ensures that all these entities implement effective systems to protect consumers and maintain industry credibility.
