FOOD SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Independent ISO 22000 Certification Body in Dubai

Dubai has become one of the Middle East's largest food trading and hospitality destinations. Thousands of food products enter the UAE through Dubai's ports, airports and logistics hubs before reaching restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, retailers and consumers. Food businesses are expected to maintain effective food safety management systems that protect consumers and comply with applicable food safety regulations.

ISO 22000:2018 is the internationally recognized Food Safety Management System (FSMS) standard. It combines food safety principles, hazard analysis, risk-based thinking, prerequisite programmes (PRPs) and HACCP principles to ensure food is safe throughout the supply chain.

Organizations operating within Dubai Municipality's regulated food sector, Dubai Industrial City, JAFZA, Dubai South, Dubai Wholesale City, Dubai Food Park and other food production and logistics hubs increasingly implement ISO 22000 Certification to strengthen customer confidence, satisfy retailer requirements and demonstrate internationally recognized food safety management practices.
