What is ISO 22000?
ISO 22000:2018 is a standard that sets out the requirements of a Food safety management system. It defines what an organization must do to demonstrate its ability to control food safety hazards and ensure that food is safe for consumption.
Quality is not an act, it’s a habit.
Who should use ISO 22000?

Following the same High-Level Structure (HLS) as other ISO management system standards, such as ISO 9001 (quality management), it is designed in a way that it can be integrated into an organization’s existing management processes but can also be used alone.
