In short

ISO 22000 certification in Mumbai at a glance

Food safety under ISO 22000 follows the chain from ingredient to shipment, and in Mumbai that chain runs from food processors on MIDC's Mumbai-Thane-Raigad land, through warehouses and cold stores, to the containers leaving Jawaharlal Nehru Port. ISO 22000 applies to every link of the food chain and combines hazard analysis, prerequisite programmes, traceability, communication and a management system for food safety. National requirements and accreditation sit on the India page. Work is led from Sterling's Mumbai office, with visits to your premises and online sessions in between; Effivity and Sterling Academy come with the engagement. Sterling prepares and supports; the accredited certification body you appoint carries out the assessment and issues the certificate.

ISO 22000 in Mumbai: questions clients ask

Which Mumbai food businesses suit ISO 22000?

Processors on MIDC's Mumbai-Thane-Raigad land and the warehouse and cold-chain operators serving Jawaharlal Nehru Port suit it, because their hazards extend beyond one production line. Choose it when buyers want a management system across the chain rather than HACCP alone.

What is the difference between ISO 22000 and HACCP?

HACCP is a hazard control method, while ISO 22000 wraps that method in a management system with leadership, planning, communication, internal audit and improvement. ISO 22000 includes the HACCP principles. Buyers sometimes name one or the other, so check what your customer expects. A Sterling consultant can talk this through with your team.
