What is ISO 22000?
If you produce, transport or sell food as an entrepreneur, you must meet specific quality requirements. Based on ISO 22000 certification, it is clear that your product meets the set requirements. This ISO 22000 certificate is not only important for you as an entrepreneur, but also for your relations. This is because suppliers in the food chain can expect you to be ISO 22000 certified.
Having a valid ISO 22000 certificate offers a great deal of security for your customers. The ISO 22000 certificate shows that the foods & raw materials meet the strict food safety requirements and the guidelines of the European Commission. In addition, you demonstrate that the employees have sufficient knowledge and can apply it to maintain the quality standard in the production process.
For whom ISO 22000
As an entrepreneur in the food production chain, you have to deal with numerous strict food safety requirements. These are laid down in the Codex Alimentaire. This codex is the result of the work of the European Food Safety Authority. This authority is in fact a committee that was once set up by NATO and is under the joint responsibility of FAO and WHO (Food and Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization). This, in turn, is recommended by the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority).
To show that you, as an entrepreneur, meet the requirements of the Codex Alimentairus, you can get certified on the basis of ISO 22000, which is common for any company involved in the food chain in Europe. If you produce, transport or sell food as an entrepreneur, this must meet specific quality requirements. With an ISO 22000 certification, it is clear that your product meets the set requirements. This ISO 22000 certificate is not only important for you as an entrepreneur, but also for your relations. This is because suppliers in the food chain can expect you to be ISO 22000 certified.

Managing and monitoring ISO 22000
Management System
Why a digital management system for ISO 22000?
Many organizations have already switched from a “handbook in the closet” to an environment such as SharePoint or a Document Management System to also be able to view their documentation remotely.
But then these questions and sources of stress linger:
- How does staff easily get knowledge and insight into the standard?
- Which procedures are based on the 7 HACCP principles?
- Why can't I easily do my registrations?
- How do I get an overview of pending tasks?
- How do I safeguard and share new processes in the organization?
- How do I really understand which processes need to be tackled structurally differently?
- How do I inform and convince my colleagues of the usefulness of certain processes?
- How can I track easily?
