Achieving HACCP certification with ACS Canada demonstrates your organization’s dedication to food safety, hygiene, and regulatory excellence—setting your business apart and building trust among consumers and stakeholders worldwide.
The HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) system is a globally recognized methodology that enables organizations to identify, control, and prevent food safety hazards throughout the production and supply chain. By obtaining HACCP certification from ACS Canada, your organization ensures compliance with both Canadian and international food safety regulations, including the U.S. FSMA (Food Safety Modernization Act). This certification enhances consumer confidence, reduces risks, and demonstrates your ongoing commitment to safe and high-quality food production.
Our highly qualified auditors and food safety specialists at ACS Canada possess decades of hands-on experience across food processing, packaging, storage, and distribution industries. From system design to Stage-1 and Stage-2 audits, our team provides complete guidance to ensure your Food Safety Management System aligns with ISO 22000 and HACCP principles. We also help clients integrate FSMS with other international standards such as ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 for unified business performance and compliance.
With over 28 years of HACCP auditing and training experience, ACS Canada is recognized as a trusted authority in food safety management. Since 1996, our experts have implemented EU and EC food safety regulations and collaborated with the United Nations on international food safety initiatives. Our proven global track record across multiple sectors ensures you receive reliable, accredited certification and effective food safety solutions that strengthen your brand reputation and operational control.
Originally developed by NASA in the 1960s and later endorsed by FAO and WHO, HACCP focuses on preventing hazards before they occur rather than inspecting finished products. This science-based system identifies biological, chemical, physical, and allergenic risks, ensuring safety throughout every stage of food production. Its preventive, risk-based framework offers measurable improvements in food safety, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
Obtaining HACCP certification with ACS Canada delivers numerous advantages:
The ISO 22000:2018 standard combines the principles of HACCP with international management system frameworks. By implementing ISO 22000 alongside HACCP, your organization achieves a comprehensive Food Safety Management System that covers every step from raw material sourcing to final product delivery. ACS Canada provides accredited ISO 22000 certification, ensuring alignment with the latest IAS-IAF food safety accreditation standards.
