FSSC 22000 certification in Hyderabad at a glance
When a global beverage brand or retailer approves a Hyderabad plant, it rarely stops at hazard analysis. It wants a scheme benchmarked by the Global Food Safety Initiative, and FSSC 22000 is the one many multinational customers name. The scheme combines ISO 22000 with sector prerequisite programmes and additional requirements such as food defence, food fraud mitigation, allergen management and control of services. Processors and packaging producers in the Hyderabad food zones and the wider region meet it most often through brand-owner supplier terms. Sterling's Mumbai office builds the system with your technical team, and a certification body licensed by the scheme owner audits and certifies.

FSSC 22000 in Hyderabad: questions clients ask
When does a Hyderabad food plant need FSSC 22000?
When a brand owner, retailer or multinational customer specifies a GFSI-benchmarked scheme in its supplier terms. Beverage and packaged-food plants supplying such customers are the usual cases in the Hyderabad region. Ask your customer in writing which scheme and category they accept.
What does FSSC 22000 add to ISO 22000 for Hyderabad processors?
Sector-specific prerequisite programmes and additional scheme requirements, such as food defence, food fraud mitigation, allergen management and management of services. The certificate is issued by a certification body licensed by the scheme owner, not by Sterling. Plan extra time for the added documentation and evidence.
