ISO 22000 certification: what it means for your egg

A system for food safety

ISO 22000 is an international standard for food safety management systems. It is about how an organisation identifies and manages hazards in the food chain, through procedures, communication and continual improvement.

What it means in practice

The attention isn't limited to the finished product. It covers how the work is organised, the monitoring of critical points and the recording of checks. Certification applies to a defined scope of activities and is assessed against the requirements of the standard.

And for you, the consumer?

Certification doesn't replace the instructions for use and storage. For every product, read the pack. For the current certificates and their scope, you can get in touch with Avgodiatrofiki.
