Contact Us TodayISO 22000 tends to enter the picture for Atlanta food businesses with international footprints — ingredient suppliers and exporters whose customers in Europe, the Middle East, or Asia recognize the ISO management-system approach, or sites that want FSSC 22000 for GFSI acceptance while building on ISO architecture they already use for quality. The standard's management-system spine (context, leadership, risk-based thinking) suits Atlanta's larger corporate manufacturers better than a bare HACCP rebuild.
If a major retailer or brand requires GFSI benchmarking, choose FSSC 22000 — it is ISO 22000 plus sector-specific prerequisite programs (ISO/TS 22002-1 for manufacturing) and additional requirements, and it carries GFSI recognition that ISO 22000 alone does not. If your drivers are export credibility and management-system integration rather than a GFSI mandate, ISO 22000 may be sufficient. We confirm your buyers' actual requirement before you commit.
Substantially. Both share the harmonized high-level structure, so your document control, internal audit, management review, and corrective action machinery transfer directly. What remains is the food safety core: hazard analysis, operational PRPs, CCP determination, and the food safety team's competence. For an established ISO 9001 site we typically integrate rather than duplicate, cutting the timeline meaningfully.
An international ISO standard that integrates HACCP principles with a full food safety management system; highly recognized for export markets.
10 to 20 weeks for full FSMS implementation prior to certification.
