In today's increasingly globalized food supply chain, ensuring food safety is paramount for businesses in the food industry. FSSC 22000 Certification, developed specifically for food safety management systems, is a globally recognized standard that helps organizations ensure the safety of their products while complying with international regulations. At IRQS, we have over 25 years of experience in the field, assisting more than 5,000 clients worldwide in achieving and maintaining FSSC 22000 certification. Our expertise in food safety certification not only enhances the credibility of your business but also instills confidence among consumers and stakeholders.
The FSSC 22000 standard integrates ISO 22000 and additional prerequisite programs (PRPs), providing a comprehensive framework for managing food safety risks. Achieving this certification demonstrates a commitment to quality and safety, essential for any organization looking to operate in the food sector. With IRQS as your partner, you gain access to a structured certification process that encompasses all stages, from initial assessment to final certification and beyond. Our team of seasoned professionals works closely with clients to tailor a certification plan that fits their specific needs and operational contexts.
The certification process begins with a thorough gap analysis, where we identify areas that require improvement to meet FSSC 22000 standards. Following this, we provide detailed guidance on implementing necessary changes, helping organizations develop and maintain effective food safety management systems. Our hands-on support continues through internal audits and pre-assessments, ensuring that you are well-prepared for the official certification audit. This proactive approach significantly increases the likelihood of a successful certification outcome on the first attempt.
One of the key benefits of achieving FSSC 22000 certification is the enhancement of your marketability. Consumers are increasingly aware of food safety issues and often prefer products from certified manufacturers. By obtaining this certification, businesses can differentiate themselves from competitors, attract new customers, and retain existing ones. Moreover, many retailers and food service companies require their suppliers to hold valid food safety certifications. Therefore, FSSC 22000 not only helps meet regulatory requirements but also opens doors to new market opportunities.

Our consultants possess extensive knowledge of food safety regulations and best practices, enabling them to provide insightful recommendations tailored to your organization's unique challenges. We believe in empowering our clients through training and support, equipping them with the knowledge necessary to maintain high food safety standards long after certification.
