FSSC 22000 certification in Shah Alam at a glance
Packed food travels through Selangor on its way to shelves at home and abroad. Invest Selangor lists food and beverage manufacturing among the state's seven key sectors, and the Port Klang Free Zone describes a free commercial and industrial zone for cargo distribution and consolidation beside the port. Manufacturers, packers and ingredient suppliers here are often asked by retailers and multinationals for a recognised food safety scheme. FSSC 22000 answers with ISO 22000 as its core, plus prerequisite programmes for the sector and scheme requirements covering food defence and food fraud. Sterling serves Shah Alam from its Kuala Lumpur office, tests whether a buyer truly requires the scheme, and prepares plants for an accredited certification body.

FSSC 22000 in Shah Alam: questions clients ask
Why would a Selangor food manufacturer choose FSSC 22000 over ISO 22000?
Because some retail and multinational buyers ask for a scheme they already recognise. FSSC 22000 uses ISO 22000 as its core and adds sector prerequisite programmes and scheme requirements, including food defence and food fraud controls. If no buyer asks for it, ISO 22000 may be enough. Check each specification.
Does Port Klang's free zone create demand for FSSC 22000?
Indirectly. Firms that pack, consolidate or distribute food through a free commercial zone serve buyers who want evidence of hygiene and traceability. The zone itself does not require a scheme certificate. Ask the buyer which standard it accepts, then compare with the product categories in scope.
