The international standard ISO 22000 Certification sets the benchmarks for a food safety management system that applies to all entities in the food chain, from production to consumption. This standard combines essential elements to ensure food safety throughout the entire food chain.
The food chain refers to the sequence of activities and procedures involved in the creation and consumption of food products. It encompasses every phase, starting from production and ending with consumption. Specifically, it includes all aspects of food manufacturing, processing, distribution, storage, and handling.
Organizations that do not directly handle food are also a part of the food chain. Among them are companies that make feed for both animals raised for food and animals intended for human consumption. Organizations that create items that may someday come into touch with food or food ingredients are also included.
For businesses looking to combine their food safety management system with their quality management system—such as ISO 9001—ISO 22000:2018 Certification is also required.
