In short

HACCP certification in Chiang Mai at a glance

Two very different kitchens in Chiang Mai need the same discipline. One is a small food factory developing a new product with advice from CMU STeP; the other is a hotel or restaurant feeding visitors who arrive through Chiang Mai International Airport. HACCP asks both to draw the process, list the biological, chemical and physical hazards, decide where control is critical, set limits, monitor, correct, verify and keep records. For a young food business it is often the first certificate that makes a retailer or exporter comfortable; for a hospitality kitchen it protects guests and reputation. Sterling builds the plan with your cooks and supervisors, working from its Manila office with visits to Chiang Mai sites, and prepares you for an accredited certification body.

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 Chiang Mai: questions clients ask

Who in Chiang Mai usually starts with HACCP?

Small food producers moving from local trade to retailers or exporters, and hotel and restaurant kitchens serving visitors. HACCP is practical to start with because it focuses on real hazards in real processes and produces records that buyers and auditors understand.

Does a Chiang Mai hotel kitchen need the same HACCP as a factory?

The principles are identical, but the hazards differ. A factory controls batch processes and packaging, while a hotel kitchen controls receiving, storage, cooking, cooling and service for many dishes. The plan should reflect how your kitchen actually works, so each site writes its own flow diagrams and limits.
