HACCP certification in Ho Chi Minh City at a glance
Plenty of Ho Chi Minh City food businesses need a documented hazard system long before they need a full management-system standard. Hiep Phuoc Industrial Park names food processing among its industries, and Tan Thuan counts food and drink firms among the 253 investors it listed in 2026. HACCP gives them a structured way to find hazards, set critical control points and limits, monitor them, correct deviations and keep records that a customer or certification body can verify. Sterling's Ho Chi Minh City office builds the plan on your own process flow, trains the HACCP team and prepares the verification records, so the accredited certification body's audit meets a system that people actually run. The national food-safety rules, including the certificate exemption, are on the Vietnam page.

HACCP in Ho Chi Minh City: questions clients ask
Where does a Ho Chi Minh City producer start with HACCP?
Start with a small team and a flow diagram of the real process, from receiving to dispatch. The team then analyses hazards, sets critical control points and limits, decides how each is monitored, defines corrective action and keeps verification records. Walking the line first matters, because plans drawn from the desk tend to describe a process nobody runs.
Is HACCP enough for an exporter shipping through Hiep Phuoc?
Sometimes. Some buyers accept a HACCP-based plan with good records, while others name ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000 in their supplier terms. HACCP is the hazard-control core of both, so work done now carries forward. Ask the importing customer which certificate it accepts before committing, since the cargo leaves through the park's own seaports.
