HACCP- Vatsin World Services Private Limited
HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points. HACCP is a Food Safety Management
System that strives to proactively identify food safety risks and devise strategies to decrease or
eliminate them from the point of food production to the point of consumption.
Compliance with HACCP is also a legal requirement in some countries. Therefore, HACCP compliance
depends on the regulations in your area and the type of food business you are in. For example, the
FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) require
mandatory HACCP certifications for juice and meat.
