Also unsafe food can be hazardous to health. For everyone involved in the food chain, food safety is not only a moral responsibility but also means increased business and profitability.


•Therefore, everyone involved in the Food chain needs to know of internationally recognized standards on Food Safety Management system for implementation.

•Stake holders in the food chain include Primary Producers, Food Manufacturers, Transport and Storage Operators, Food Service Outlets and Service Providers.
