All the certifications, including BRCGS, MSC, HACCP and FDA, hold significant importance in ensuring the quality and safety of seafood products at the Hai Trieu Food seafood processing plant. While they share common goals such as ensuring safety and product quality, each certification addresses different aspects and criteria, creating diversity and uniqueness in the control and management of seafood products. Here’s the differentiation and significance of each certification:

BRCGS (British Retail Consortium Global Standards)

• BRCGS is an international standard for food safety and quality management.
• BRCGS certification identifies standards for risk management, inspection, and assessment across various stages of seafood production.
• BRCGS expands market opportunities by instilling confidence in customers regarding product safety and quality.

MSC (Marine Stewardship Council)

• MSC focuses on marine resource conservation and ensuring sustainability in the harvesting and processing of seafood.
• MSC certification confirms that Hai Trieu Food’s seafood products meet sustainability standards and do not harm the marine environment.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points)

• HACCP is a rigorous food safety management system that concentrates on identifying, assessing, and controlling food-related risks.
• HACCP certification ensures that Hai Trieu Food implements measures to guarantee food safety at every stage of production.

FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)

• FDA mandates adherence to strict U.S. food safety standards.
• FDA certification is particularly crucial for exporting seafood products to the United States, ensuring that products do not pose health risks to consumers.

“Free of Sale” Certification

• “Free of Sale” certification assures that Hai Trieu Food’s seafood products comply with all relevant regulations and standards required for unrestricted sale and distribution.
• This certification provides evidence to consumers and authorities that the products meet quality and safety criteria, facilitating their entry into various markets.

In summary, while these certifications share commonality in their overarching goal of ensuring seafood product safety and quality, each certification defines and ensures different aspects of the production process. The combination creates a comprehensive and diverse management system, allowing Hai Trieu Food to ensure that our products meet all critical standards and instill confidence in their customers.
