FSSC 22000 in Mumbai: questions clients ask
Why do food exporters near Mumbai look at FSSC 22000?
Food makers on MIDC's Mumbai-Thane-Raigad land and exporters shipping through Jawaharlal Nehru Port are often asked by retail and brand buyers for a recognised food safety scheme, and FSSC 22000 is one of them. Buyers decide which scheme they accept, so ask each one before choosing.
Which food sites can hold FSSC 22000?
Eligibility depends on the scheme's food chain categories, which cover manufacturing of food, packaging, feed and some storage and distribution activities. Farms and retail outlets are treated differently. Check the category for your activity with the certification body before you plan, since the prerequisite programme standard follows the category.
