it has to demonstrate its ability to control hazards to food safety, in order to provide safe final products, that meet the food safety requirements agreed by customers, consumers and the regulatory authority; |
| |
|
| |
it is into its own advantage to improve the customer satisfaction by an efficient control of the hazards to food safety; |
