HACCP certification in Cardiff at a glance
Fresh produce is among the cargo the Port of Cardiff handles, and from quayside storage to delivery lorries, someone has to control hazards such as temperature and cross-contamination. HACCP is that discipline, and Cardiff's catering and food-service sector uses it daily. HACCP looks at each step of food handling, identifies the hazards that could cause harm, sets critical limits at control points, monitors them and records everything. Enterprise Zone occupiers and their suppliers hear these questions regularly. Sterling's London office takes on Cardiff engagements, with Effivity and Sterling Academy included with the engagement; the certificate is issued by an accredited certification body. Legal and accreditation detail stays on the United Kingdom page.

HACCP in Cardiff: questions clients ask
Does fresh produce through the Port of Cardiff create HACCP demand?
It creates activity that needs hazard control, since fresh produce passes through storage, handling and onward transport where temperature and contamination matter. Importers and storage firms often adopt HACCP-based systems when retail customers ask. Legal duties are national and covered on the UK page.
What should a Cardiff cold-store operator record under HACCP?
Temperature monitoring at the critical control points, deviations and the corrective action taken, calibration of probes, cleaning and pest control checks, and periodic verification. The records are what customers and inspectors examine, so keep them current and legible. Check the point against your own customer terms.
