The FSSC 22000 represents a worldwide food safety system compliance scheme that implements ISO 22000 principles along with sector-specific PRPs and FSSC special requirements to ensure global food safety management standards across the supply chain. Food safety protocols under Food Safety System Certification 22000 operate throughout the whole supply chain, starting from manufacturers to suppliers and extending to both storage and distribution, logically leading to restaurants. The Global Food Safety Initiative-recognized FSSC 22000 certification system enables businesses to meet legal obligations and improve risk controls through food safety commitments while establishing trust with consumers.
Qdot provides consultancy services across Pakistan that help organizations obtain certification with maximum efficiency. Our services are available in all major cities, including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, and Sialkot.
Where's The Difference Between ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000 and Stuff?
The primary distinction between ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000 pertains to GFSI recognition since the Food Safety Federation that grants standard authority operates as a "food safety passport" to international markets through 22000 recognition, but ISO 22000 lacks this approval. In addition, the ISO 22000 standard emphasizes the management system, defining a list of requirements for PRPs but not outlining how to implement them in the system. At the same time, the Food Safety System Certification 22000 standard is a combination of ISO 22000 standard-requisite programs relevant to the sector and additional requirements defined by FSSC.
