Dear tomorrowguy ,

You do not specify any particular industry or whether interested in local and/or export trade.

NGO - If any country contains a representative of any inspection companies, I think it will invariably be possible for a company therein to acquire HACCP and FSMS (ISO22000) certification if their specific business is accommodated in the standard. Additionally many (all major) companies will send in people from outside if required and safe access is possible.

This apparently includes South Korea, eg

Government – (HACCP) IMEX particularly varies with industry, for example seafood which was one of the first industries to widely apply HACCP utilises government regulatory certification in many locations since the major importing countries demand it. There may be comprehensive lists published similar to the one I hv linked above but I have not seen them.
Regarding FSMS (ISO 22000), I expect this is not common or zero. No exact idea, sorry.

c. Each certification result accepts

Sorry but I don’t know what this means ?? If you mean number of companies certified for each country for HACCP / ISO22000, this is a large query. Some info exists on this forum for iso 22000 but will require a little searching.

There may also be a poll running for iso 22000 here, can't remember.

Dear Charles.C

Thanks for your earliest respond.

Regarding Quto C,
As you know that some of HACCP requriements are included in FSMS(22000) STD. For this reason when HACCP or ISMS certification body audit to the company, the audit result of thes common requriement should be accepted each certification system.

Please understand non english user member quoto.

Tahnks again for your kindness comment.

Hi tomorrowguy, welcome to the forums.

IN the UK it is a legal requirement for all food businesses (except primary producers) to put in place, implement and maintain a permanent procedure or procedures based on food safety management (HACCP) principles.

In addition the big retailers (Tesco, Wallmart, Sainsbury's, M & S and others) require their suppliers (and suppliers suppliers) to be certified to the BRC Standards, which is a private suite of standards owned by the British Retail Consortium. In addition some retailers also carry out their own audits against their own standards or audit protocols.
