Your Compliance Partner for the U.S. Market
At Fresh Group, we understand that ensuring food safety and product quality is at the heart of your food and beverage business. As a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), meeting industry standards while maintaining efficiency can be challenging. That’s why we offer tailored guidance and solutions to help you comply with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), a critical part of ensuring the safety,
consistency, and quality of your products.
Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) are regulations enforced by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) in the United States of America, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in the EU, and Health Canada in Canada, which provide the framework for producing safe and high-quality food products. These regulations help businesses in the food and beverage industry like yours mitigate risks, meet regulatory requirements, and satisfy customer expectations.
What Are Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP)?
Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) are a set of quality standards designed to ensure that food products are produced consistently, safely, and according to high-quality standards. Whether you’re a small food producer or an expanding food manufacturer, cGMP compliance is essential for maintaining product safety and reducing the risk of contamination, defects, or other safety hazards.
In the United States, cGMPs are primarily governed by the FDA, while in Europe, the EFSA sets forth the standards that must be adhered to. Canada’s cGMPs are enforced by Health Canada, in collaboration with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). These regulations focus on everything from the design and maintenance of facilities, proper sanitation, employee hygiene, equipment calibration, to record-keeping practices.
Why cGMP Compliance Matters to Your Business
Adhering to cGMP guidelines is not just about passing inspections – it’s about ensuring the safety of your products and protecting the reputation of your brand. Here’s why cGMP compliance should be a priority for your food and beverage company:
• Quality Assurance: Ensures your products meet high standards for safety and quality every time.
• Regulatory Compliance: Helps you meet food safety regulations in the USA, EU, and Canada.
• Consumer Trust: Increases confidence in your brand by demonstrating your commitment to food safety.
• Risk Mitigation: Reduces the likelihood of recalls, fines, or negative publicity due to food safety issues.
• Operational Efficiency: Streamlines processes and helps optimize production while maintaining safety.
