FSSC 22000 certification in Kolkata at a glance
Some importers and brand owners do not discuss food safety schemes with a new supplier; they send a list, and FSSC 22000 sits near the top. For processors in Howrah's Food Park III and the packaging firms that supply them, the scheme builds on ISO 22000 with sector prerequisite programmes and extra requirements, including food defence, food fraud mitigation, allergen management and control of services, and its audits follow the scheme owner's rules. Benchmarking by the Global Food Safety Initiative is the reason buyers favour it. Sterling's Mumbai office carries out a gap assessment, builds the system with your technical team and prepares evidence; a certification body licensed by the scheme owner certifies the plant.

FSSC 22000 in Kolkata: questions clients ask
When does a Kolkata processor need FSSC 22000?
When a brand owner, retailer or importer names a GFSI-benchmarked scheme as a condition of supply. Processors serving such customers from the Howrah park are the usual cases. Obtain the requirement in writing and confirm the food-sector category with the certification body.
How much extra work is FSSC 22000 compared with ISO 22000?
More documentation and evidence: sector prerequisite programmes, food defence, food fraud mitigation, allergen management and control of services, plus audit rules set by the scheme owner. A certification body licensed by the scheme carries out the audits. Sterling's gap assessment shows the extra effort before you commit.
