We specialise in assisting food businesses meet their technical, quality and food safety compliance requirements.

Food Safety and Compliance

Are you starting a food or hospitality business and need help with food safety laws and compliance? Being food safe can be confusing for first time food start-ups, and expensive for medium to large enterprises. We help you to remain compliant with:

• Food Act 2014

• New Zealand food standards code (FSANZ)

• Animal Products Act 1999

Food Labelling Compliance

Are you beginning to create packaging for your food product? Do your labels comply with the Food Standards Code? Getting your wording right to ensure your health claims are legal and having accurate nutrition panels are absolutely vital to a successful product in the local or international market. Getting your food and beverage labelling in NZ right is essential for keeping consumers educated and your labelling legal.

International and Third Party Food Safety Standards

If you want to move into a new market or region, you may find you need to operate to a higher standard. This could be your big move into a supermarket chain, or into a huge new overseas market. Make sure you get your third party food certifications right.

• Quality – ISO9000

• Food Safety – Woolworths Supplier Excellence Program - Food Manufacturing Standard, BRC - Food Safety, SQF2000

• Sustainability – Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)

• Religious – Halal (Regulated by MPI in some sectors for export)
