Certified but stuck?
Why HACCP, FSSAI, ISO 22000, BRCGS, IFS, or SQF don’t always unlock global doors
You might hold a certificate that proves your competence but not your cross-border credibility.
A certification valid in India may not be enough for international retail, exports, or global partnerships.
Food safety frameworks like
HACCP
FSSAI
ISO22000
BRCGS
IFS
SQF all aim to protect public health and ensure consistent practices but their acceptance varies by region, regulation, and buyer expectations.
🔍 Let’s break it down:
🇮🇳 FSSAI + HACCP
FSSAI compliance is legally mandatory in India, and HACCP is a strong foundation for process control. But for exports or multinational clients, these often need to be paired with GFSI-recognized certifications like BRCGS, IFS, or FSSC 22000.
🌍 ISO 22000 / FSSC 22000
Widely respected and built on global ISO principles. FSSC 22000 adds PRP modules and GFSI benchmarking, making it more export-ready. Ideal for Indian manufacturers targeting Europe, the Middle East, or Southeast Asia.
🇬🇧 BRCGS
A must-have for UK retailers and many North American buyers. Known for its rigorous audits and emphasis on product integrity, traceability, and continuous improvement. Gaining traction among Indian exporters in packaged foods and ready-to-eat segments.
🇪🇺 IFS
Europe’s preferred standard, especially for retail and private label suppliers. While less common in India, it’s increasingly requested by EU buyers for processed foods, dairy, and beverages.
🇺🇸 SQF
Popular in North America and Oceania, but less recognized in India unless you're supplying directly to U.S. retailers or foodservice chains. Built on HACCP and GFSI principles, with strong supply chain assurance.
🧭 The truth:
No single certification guarantees global recognition.
To grow internationally, Indian professionals and companies need a strategic mix of standards aligned with their target markets and supply chain partners.
