In short

ISO 22000 certification in Munich at a glance

Behind every Munich market stall is a chain of storage, handling and delivery. The Großmarkthalle brings fresh produce in at the Schäftlarnstraße site, and Markthallen München describes a combined quality, environment and hygiene management for it, while craft food firms operate from the city's Gewerbehöfe. ISO 22000 is the international food safety management system standard: it combines hazard analysis and critical control points with prerequisite programmes, communication along the food chain and a management-system loop of audit and review. It can be certified for producers, caterers, storage and packaging operators alike, which makes it practical for businesses of different sizes. Sterling designs the system from its Frankfurt office; an accredited certification body issues the certificate, and German food law is covered on the Germany page.

Critical controls are monitoredControl measures are validated, monitored and acted on when limits are breached, following HACCP principles.
Unsafe product does not leaveTraceability, handling of potentially unsafe product, withdrawal and recall are planned and tested.
Food safety information flows along the chainInformation is exchanged with suppliers, customers, authorities and your own staff so hazards are not missed.
Leadership reviews and improvesManagement sets food safety policy and objectives, the system is verified and audited, and it is updated as risks change.

ISO 22000 in Munich: questions clients ask

Is ISO 22000 suitable for a Munich caterer or wholesaler?

Yes. It applies to any organisation in the food chain, including caterers, wholesalers, storage and packaging operators. It builds HACCP into a management system with audit and review. Whether a customer asks for ISO 22000 or a benchmarked scheme such as FSSC 22000 is a buyer decision.

What sets ISO 22000 apart from a basic HACCP plan for Munich food firms?

HACCP is the hazard method; ISO 22000 wraps it in a management system with policy, responsibilities, communication, internal audit and management review, and it can be independently certified. A firm with a sound HACCP plan already has the core of it.
