At the heart of our mission is the vital task of shaping and upholding food standards and safety practices, an imperative for Food Business Operators (FBOs) in today’s dynamic landscape. We take proactive measures to achieve this by:
Influencing National Food Standards: We actively participate in the development of food standards and advocate for effective enforcement approaches at the national level. Our aim is to ensure these standards are not just defined but also embraced and implemented by FBOs, thus fostering a culture of excellence in food safety.
Collaborating for a Culture of Compliance: We forge strong partnerships with key stakeholders, fostering a culture of standards and compliance within the food industry. By working together, we collectively raise the bar for quality and safety in food production.
Supporting Certification Bodies and FBOs: We provide indispensable support to both certification bodies and FBOs in implementing government-accredited accreditation policies. This guidance ensures that certifications are in line with regulatory requirements, promoting consumer trust in certified products.
Technical Expertise for Labeling and Packaging: We offer FBOs the technical expertise needed to adopt prescribed procedures related to labeling, packaging, and claims pertaining to health, nutrition, special dietary uses, and categorization of packaged foods. Compliance in these areas is crucial for transparency and consumer awareness.
Updating and Upgrading Standards: In collaboration with government agencies, we support the continuous improvement of food standards and guidelines. By keeping these regulations current and relevant, we adapt to emerging industry trends and technologies.
Enhancing Testing Procedures: We provide crucial support to food testing laboratories, ensuring they adhere to prescribed testing procedures and procedural guidelines set by the government. This ensures that testing processes are not only accurate but also accredited, upholding the highest standards of safety and quality.
Our unwavering commitment to determining and upholding food standards and safety compliance empowers FBOs to thrive in an environment where consumer trust and regulatory compliance are paramount. Together, we build a safer and more transparent food industry for all.
