ISO 22000 FOOD SAFETY

MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS CERTIFICATION

Food safety is a joint responsibility of all parties

participating in the food chain. The ISO 2200

standard is focused on the development, implementation

and improvement of a Food Safety Management System.

Those who are involved in food processing, manufacturing, and

distribution should adopt and implement the ISO 22000.

By successfully implementing the Food Safety Management

System, your organization gets the advantage of certification

against ISO 22000 with the world’s known independent

third party such as PECB.

ISO 22000 certification (also known as “registration”), is a third-party audit performed by a certification body such as PECB who, upon verification that an organization is in compliance with the requirements of ISO 22000, will issue an ISO 22000 certificate. This certification is then maintained through regularly scheduled annual surveillance

audits by the registrar, with re-certification performed on a triennial basis.
