Why expert advice is worth having
Organisations rarely fail FSSC 22000 because the standard is hard. They fail because the evidence does not match what the auditor asks for.
Surveillance never stops
A FSSC 22000 certificate is the start of a three year cycle, not the end of a project. Building for the surveillance audits from day one costs far less than rebuilding before each one.
Experience across sectors
Having implemented FSSC 22000 in very different operating environments, we can tell you quickly which of your worries are real and which are inherited from someone else's situation.
Findings get closed, not logged
Most FSSC 22000 audits produce findings. What matters is whether they are closed with genuine corrective action or papered over, because the next auditor reads the last report first.
It has to survive after we leave
A FSSC 22000 system that only works while a consultant is on site fails its first surveillance audit. We build it so your own people can run it, and train them to do so.

What FSSC 22000 is worth to you
Certification is a commercial decision before it is a technical one. This is where the return usually shows up.
GFSI Recognition
Global buyers who mandate a benchmarked scheme accept this one, which a plain food safety management certificate does not satisfy.
Food Fraud Defences
The required vulnerability and food defence assessments protect you from adulterated inputs that would otherwise arrive and be used unnoticed.
Multi Site Consistency
One scheme applied across plants means the customer receives the same standard of product wherever their order happens to be made.
Unannounced Audit Ready
Because surveillance can arrive without warning, the system has to work every day, and that daily discipline shows in your output.

FSSC 22000 questions we are asked most
What does FSSC 22000 involve in practice?
In practice that means documented processes matching how you really work, records showing the system running, people trained on their part of it, and an internal audit completed before anyone external arrives.
What is a realistic timeline for FSSC 22000?
Plan on somewhere between eight and sixteen weeks. Organisations with existing procedures move faster; those starting from nothing spend most of the time on documentation and getting records actually made rather than promised.
Do you issue the FSSC 22000 certificate yourselves?
No, and no consultant should. The certificate comes from an independent accredited certification body after their own audit. We prepare you to pass it and we are there on the day to close findings. That separation is exactly what makes the certificate worth holding.
What does FSSC 22000 consultancy cost?
There is no useful list price for FSSC 22000. Two organisations of the same size can differ by a factor of three depending on existing documentation. A short scoping call gets you an accurate written number.
Which industries need FSSC 22000?
We map FSSC 22000 to 3 sectors and it sits in our food safety practice. Organisations usually arrive because a specific buyer, regulator or tender committee has asked. Tell us who is asking and we will confirm whether this is the standard that satisfies them.
Do you have to visit our premises?
We work onsite, remote or a mix. Multi site groups often use remote sessions for documentation and reserve site visits for the gap analysis and the audit itself, which keeps travel cost out of the fee.
Prefer to just ask someone about FSSC 22000 rather than fill in a form?
