FDA FSMA Certification Overview

On January 4, 2011, the US government enacted the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) for the purpose of protecting food supply safety and public health through precautionary prevention.This allows FDA to focus on preventing food safety issues with the enactment of FSMA.FSMA applies to facilities that manufacture, process, package or store food or feed. Also, companies that send food to the United States, such as producers, US importers, shippers, recipients, shippers, and transporters, must comply with FSMA. Therefore, according to FSMA, companies need to establish a food safety system that includes preventive management based on hazard analysis and prepare a documented food safety plan. 

The Importance of FSMA Auditor Certification

The United States is an important export destination for Korea and is a very important food export market. Therefore, the FSMA third-party certification serves as an opportunity for food companies to expand their exports to the US. Therefore, FSMA auditor certification is required in order to conduct an audit by an accredited third party to ensure compliance with the regulations required by FSMA.
