In short

HACCP certification in Dammam at a glance

Start with the hazards, then the controls: that is HACCP, and in Dammam it is the practical first step for smaller food businesses. The city's food activity ranges from named producers such as the Saudi Company for Light Snacks (PepsiCo) in Dammam 2nd Industrial City to contract caterers feeding a large industrial workforce. HACCP identifies each biological, chemical and physical hazard, sets critical control points with limits, monitors them, and keeps verification records. Certification is granted by an accredited certification body, and many operators later extend the same work into ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000. Sterling builds the hazard analysis and records with the site team, served from Sterling's Riyadh office. Saudi Arabia page: regulators and accreditation.

Requirements

What HACCP requires

Strip away the vocabulary and HACCP asks a food business to prove six things about how it controls food safety hazards.

A team knows the product and processA competent team has described each product, its intended use and a verified flow diagram of how it is made.
Hazards are analysedEvery significant hazard at each step is identified, and the measures that will control it are decided.
Critical control points have limitsThe steps where control is essential are identified, each with critical limits that separate safe from unsafe.
Monitoring and correction are routineEach critical point is monitored, and corrective action is defined in advance and taken whenever a limit is breached.
The plan is verifiedChecks confirm the plan works, from validating limits to reviewing records and reassessing when anything changes.
Records prove itDocuments and records show the plan was followed, ready for customers, auditors and food inspectors.

HACCP in Dammam: questions clients ask

Is HACCP enough for a Dammam food business, or should it go further?

HACCP is enough where your customers ask for nothing more. Dammam's food base runs from snack producers in Dammam 2nd Industrial City to smaller caterers, and larger buyers sometimes ask for ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000, which extend the HACCP approach. Check each customer's requirement before you scope the work.

Which Dammam operators typically start with HACCP?

Smaller food producers and caterers around the estates. MODON lists food and beverages as a target sector of Dammam 2nd Industrial City, and the workforce there creates catering demand. These operators usually begin with HACCP for hazard control and add a fuller management system if a customer requires it.
