FSSC 22000 certification in Ahmedabad at a glance
Retail and multinational food buyers often write FSSC 22000 into their supplier terms, and Sanand has plenty of the kind of customers who might. GIDC's list of existing players there includes Nestle, Coca-Cola and Nivea, while Sanand-II names wheat-based products and textiles among its target sectors. A packaging converter or ingredient supplier feeding such plants may be asked for a scheme recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative. FSSC 22000 adds sector prerequisite programmes and further requirements, such as food defence and fraud controls, to an ISO 22000 system. Sterling's Mumbai office prepares the documents, hazard analysis and training, and an accredited certification body issues the certificate.

FSSC 22000 in Ahmedabad: questions clients ask
Do packaging suppliers to Sanand food plants need FSSC 22000?
Sometimes. Food-contact packaging makers are asked for evidence that their own site is hygienic and controlled, and a recognised scheme is one way to supply it. Whether FSSC 22000 or another scheme is wanted depends on the customer, so ask each buyer for its supplier requirements before committing.
How does FSSC 22000 differ from ISO 22000 for an Ahmedabad plant?
FSSC 22000 uses ISO 22000 as its core and adds sector prerequisite programmes and extra scheme requirements, including food defence and food fraud. ISO 22000 alone may satisfy some customers; others insist on the scheme. A plant can build the ISO 22000 system first and add the scheme layers if a buyer asks.
