The FSSC 22000 is based on the internationally recognized standard ISO 22000 and the British Standards Institute (BSI) specification PAS 220. This certification has recently gained full approval by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) following an extensive benchmarking process using international standards based on industry best practices and sound science. WILD customers can be confident that products purchased are not only of the highest quality but have been processed with food safety programs meeting the requirements of this stringent food safety standard. This recent certification is an outstanding accomplishment for one of the world’s leading privately-owned manufacturers of natural flavors and strengthens WILD’s position as a global supplier throughout the Food & Beverage Industry.
Michael Ponder, President and CEO commented, “With the current level of concern worldwide, WILD has taken proactive steps to ensure the proper global procedures for food safety throughout the supply chain of our ingredients. The FSSC certification is only a part of the on-going practices and awareness of the food safety provided to our customers ensuring international stability of our products.”
