The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), enacted in 2011, is the most significant reform of U.S. food safety laws in over 70 years. By shifting from reactive to preventive controls, FSMA aims to reduce foodborne illnesses and protect public health across the entire food supply chain.
FSMA empowers the FDA to enforce science-based, risk-oriented standards for safe food production, harvesting, packing, and storage, including fresh produce. It introduces Hazard Analysis and Risk-Based Preventive Controls (HARPC), enhancing traditional HACCP systems for comprehensive food safety. At Infinity Food Solutions (IFS), we provide tailored support to navigate FSMA’s complexities, ensuring compliance and market readiness.
