FSSC 22000 certification in London at a glance
Park Royal has been called London's Kitchen for good reason: it is the capital's largest industrial estate and home to food and drink producers who supply retailers and caterers. Those buyers often name FSSC 22000 in supplier approval, because it is recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative. FSSC 22000 is a food safety certification scheme recognised by the Global Food Safety Initiative, combining ISO 22000 with sector prerequisite programmes and additional scheme requirements. Sterling's London office supports the build, with Effivity and Sterling Academy included with the engagement, and an accredited certification body then issues the certificate. National law, regulators and accreditation detail sit on the United Kingdom page rather than here.

FSSC 22000 in London: questions clients ask
Which Park Royal firms look at FSSC 22000?
Food and drink manufacturers supplying retailers, caterers and wholesalers, plus packaging and ingredient suppliers to them. The deciding factor is usually the customer's supplier approval list, which names the schemes it accepts. If your buyer accepts several, compare the effort of each before committing.
How is FSSC 22000 different from ISO 22000?
FSSC 22000 uses ISO 22000 as its core but adds sector prerequisite programmes and extra scheme requirements, and it has GFSI recognition that retailers look for. ISO 22000 on its own is a management system standard. Choose according to what your customers accept.
