What is HACCP?

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a systematic preventive approach to food safety that identifies, evaluates, and controls hazards throughout the food production process. It is recognized by Codex Alimentarius and adopted globally.

HACCP focuses on preventing biological, chemical, and physical hazards in food production rather than relying solely on end-product testing. The seven HACCP principles guide hazard analysis, critical control point identification, and monitoring.

In Saudi Arabia, SFDA mandates HACCP-based food safety systems for food manufacturers, processors, and food service establishments. HACCP certification demonstrates compliance with these requirements.

HACCP can be implemented standalone or as part of ISO 22000, which incorporates HACCP principles within a broader management system framework.
