ISO 22000 consultants in South Africa

HACCP-based food safety management systems built around your real process, and kept audit-ready.

Contact usSee the platform

ISO 22000:2018 is the food safety management standard built on HACCP principles: it ties your prerequisite programmes, hazard analysis and critical control points into one system the whole supply chain can trust. We help food, beverage and packaging operations design that system around how your line actually runs, then prepare you for an accredited certification audit.

You can bring us in for consulting only, for consulting plus the iQuotient platform, or to align an existing food safety system with the standard. Many clients run it alongside ISO 9001 as one integrated system. The starting point is always a gap audit that shows exactly where you stand.

What we do

  • Prerequisite programmes (PRPs) and good manufacturing practice mapped to your facility.
  • HACCP study: hazard analysis, critical control points, limits and monitoring built around your process.
  • Traceability, recall readiness and control of nonconforming product.
  • Documented procedures, registers and team training your people will actually use.
  • Internal audits, management review and certification-body audit preparation: we get you ready to pass.

Is this you?

01

A retailer is asking for it

A major retailer or customer requires certified food safety before they will list or keep your product. You need a credible system and an accredited certificate, quickly.

02

Building or upgrading a line

You are setting up production, adding a facility or tightening controls, and want food safety designed in from the start rather than bolted on later.

03

Outgrowing a basic HACCP plan

You have a HACCP file but it no longer matches the operation. ISO 22000 brings management-system discipline, traceability and proof you can defend.

Frequently asked questions about ISO 22000

What does an ISO 22000 consultant do?
We help you design, implement, maintain and improve a HACCP-based food safety management system that meets ISO 22000:2018: gap audit, prerequisite programmes, hazard analysis and critical control points, traceability, internal audits and management review, so you are ready for the independent certification audit and the system keeps working afterwards.
What is the difference between HACCP and ISO 22000?
HACCP is the method for identifying and controlling food safety hazards. ISO 22000 wraps HACCP and prerequisite programmes inside a full management system: leadership, risk, traceability, internal audit and continual improvement, so it is auditable and certifiable. We build the whole system, with HACCP at its core.
How long does ISO 22000 take in South Africa?
Most implementations run three to twelve months, depending on the size of the operation, the maturity of existing food safety controls, available internal time and any retailer deadline. A gap audit is the fastest way to get a realistic timeline.
Can Synergy Consilium issue ISO 22000 certification?
No. We are a consulting and implementation partner. We prepare and improve the food safety system; an independent, accredited certification body performs the audit and issues the certificate. Keeping those roles separate protects the integrity of your certificate.
Can ISO 22000 be combined with ISO 9001?
Yes, and it often is. We regularly build them as one integrated system so quality and food safety share procedures, audits and evidence instead of duplicating them. Your gap audit will show whether an integrated build suits your operation.
