Best Practices for Ensuring Food Safety in Frozen Produce
Noon International LLC
Global supplier of frozen fruits and vegetables for 49 years.
With growing demand for frozen fruits and vegetables, food safety in frozen produce is paramount. At Noon International, we prioritize rigorous food safety standards, aligning our processes with the latest Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) guidelines to go beyond industry expectations. By following updated best practices and USDA protocols, we ensure that our frozen produce meets the highest safety and quality standards, providing customers with safe and nutritious products.
How Noon International Adheres to FSMA Standards:
1. Supplier Partnerships with High Standards
Noon International collaborates with farms and suppliers who meet or exceed USDA and FSMA safety requirements for frozen produce. Our partners undergo rigorous pathogen testing for contaminants like Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli and adhere to stringent safety audits. This proactive approach ensures early detection and control of potential risks, safeguarding product integrity.
2. HACCP and Preventive Controls
In compliance with FSMA requirements, our partners implement Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) systems and preventive controls to manage risks from farm to freezer. We monitor every stage of production, focusing on areas prone to hazards and employing corrective actions to prevent contamination.
3. Flash Freezing for Freshness and Safety
Flash freezing helps lock in nutrients while maintaining product safety. Our partners use advanced freezing methods, preserving freshness and reducing the risk of microbial growth. Coupled with stringent hygiene protocols, these techniques ensure the safest possible products reach our customers.
4. Ongoing Training and Sanitation Measures
Our team is trained regularly in the latest FSMA requirements for food handling, sanitation, and hazard control. We maintain strict sanitation practices across our supply chain, from equipment sanitation to personal hygiene, minimizing contamination risks.
