Food Safety & Traceability

How the facility's food safety management system is audited and accredited.

  • FSSC 22000 combines ISO 22000:2018 with the ISO/TS 22002-1 prerequisite programmes and the scheme's additional requirements — a standard major retailers and manufacturers accept directly for supplier qualification.

  • Food-safety certification has been held continuously since September 2014, across successive three-year certification cycles.

  • The scheme requires at least one unannounced surveillance audit within every three-year cycle. The most recent was carried out on 16 August 2023.

  • Certificates are issued by Bureau Veritas under UKAS accreditation (FSSC 22000) and ACFS Thailand accreditation (HACCP, GHP).

  • For organic shipments, a CERES transaction certificate can be issued per consignment in addition to the facility's USDA NOP certification.

  • Third-party shipment inspection by SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek can be arranged on request.
