Hi all,

I have a small but may be silly question. One of our new customer is asking us a food safety risk assessment and also asking to include review of our suppliers traceability program and food safety program.

My question is,

We have HACCP program in place. Can i use it as a food safety risk assesment?

We have vendor approval program in which we review vendors traceability program. Vendor approval program is a pre requisite program in HACCCP. Please guide me do i need to do something else? or i can show him our HACCP plan and that will work.

Regards
Dave

Hi Dhaval,

If you have a robust vendor approval program which demonstrates risk assesments and tracebaility then I do not see any reason why you can't use this to show to your new customer.

If the customer is not happy then ask them for further clarification.

Regards

Ajay
