I am not necessarily new here but I did switch jobs and so I am at a new company with a new position in Animal Food. I am excited to learn and grow in this position but we have a long way to go. I am going to attend a FSPCA course on FSMA for Animal Food to hopefully give me some guidance. I am looking forward to all the collaboration that I experienced from my previous position.

I have taken the FSMA for human consumption, so I hope to be refreshed and learn the major differences. Since coming from human foods I have some preconceptions but I would like to fully understand what we need to do to comply. Also I am looking into SQF vs FSSC22000 as a scheme for the company. I am eager to learn more about grain handling from my new position. 

 

Thanks for the welcome!

Sounds excellent. Are you taking in food waste and turning it into animal feed? You mentioned grain handling and I think of big huge bulk flour silos back when I worked in the bakery industry. I am accustomed to the SQF scheme and after familiarizing myself with FSSC22000 it seams that FSSC22000 gives the company more ability to interpret the code and apply it in a more creative fashion.

@jdpaul - Thanks for the info. That is what I am seeing as I am looking into it. I cannot seem to get a definitive answer yet but I don't want to put the cart before the horse and we need to get things in order first. We do barley and oat processing for animal feed. 

 

I am in the process of creating our food safety plans and our policies etc...
