Food Quality Control Systems

Food quality management includes maintaining food safety and security .It is very important for the food processors to create and maintain thorough safety management system. The food industry has a number of Quality Assurance (QA) systems available like GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices), HACCP (Hazard Analysis, Critical Control Points) and ISO (International Organisation for standardisation) standards. These systems and their combinations are recommended for food quality and safety assurance. It is very important to know to what extent these systems contribute to the total quality of the product and to balance the tools used for achieving the quality and safety objectives.
