In short

ISO 22000 certification in Iloilo City at a glance

Where food passes through many hands, one weak link spoils the chain, and Iloilo's plans for a food hub in Cabatuan, an abattoir in Pavia and cold storage in Guimaras would lengthen the chain across the metro area. ISO 22000 covers every link: farms and slaughterhouses, processors, storage, transport and catering. It combines hazard analysis with prerequisite programmes, operational controls, traceability, communication with suppliers and customers, internal audit, management review and continual improvement. Hotels, conventions and caterers in Iloilo Business Park and across the city are the nearest buyers of certified food suppliers. Sterling builds the system from its Manila office, with Effivity for records, and an accredited certification body issues the certificate.

ISO 22000 in Iloilo City: questions clients ask

What does ISO 22000 add to HACCP for an Iloilo caterer or processor?

It surrounds HACCP with a management system: policy, objectives, communication along the food chain, internal audit, management review and improvement. For an Iloilo caterer supplying hotels or a processor supplying shops, one certificate then shows the whole system is under control. It is also the core of FSSC 22000.

Which Iloilo operators are most likely to be asked for ISO 22000?

Suppliers to hotels and conventions, food processors selling to retailers, and meat and cold-chain handlers in the wider metro area once those projects operate. Buyers usually request it in supplier terms. Check the wording, because some name a particular scheme such as FSSC 22000.
