How CDO-Foodsphere produces world-class products Marites Escarcha, Foodsphere Vice President for Plant Operations, said the company has improved its
manufacturing system giving more emphasis on quality assurance rather than quality control where the latter is a reactive approach dependent on routine inspection and testing. “Quality assurance is a proactive approach focusing on the manufacturing process to ensure quality of a product even before production,” Escarcha said.
She said it requires an established and documented quality management system, training of people, and periodic assessment or audit, to ensure effectiveness, adequacy and relevance of the system in place. The combined efforts of both government and private sector has effectively increased consumers’
awareness and demand for food safety. Hence, as aligned with local regulatory and, both its local and international customer requirements, CDO endeavoured to improved and consistently put these quality standards into practice, to meet its commitment to every consumer to provide not just affordable, but most of all, safe products. Escarcha added that the company gives emphasis to com pliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and implementation of the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP). GMP provides minimum requirements for personnel, working environment, process, equipment and facilities, among others, to ensure that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. HACCP, on the other hand, is a systematic and scientific approach that identifies and controls possible food hazards in each step of the process to ensure food safety. These, coupled with established and implemented quality and food safety management systems, the company obtained world-class certification from a highly recognized third-party certification body. SGS Philippines, a leading certification company, awarded Foodsphere with two ce rtificates for ISO systems, the Quality Management System (ISO 9001:2008) and Food Safety Management System (ISO
22000:2005) which was further elevated to Food Safety System Certification (FSSC 22000), a certification scheme compliant with ISO 22000:2005 and ISO/TS 22002-1 Pre-requisite Program on Food Safety. “These certificates attest to the company’s world-class manufacturing standards and excellent food safety system, “ said Escarcha.
Foodsphere has been included in the directory of FSSC certified companies worldwide, since 2013, where almost 9,000 certified sites in 149 countries are listed. As of February 2015, the Philippines has only 81 certified sites, where 74 are food manufacturing companies and 7 are food packaging materials manufacturing establishments. Of the 74 sites, only 3 meat processing plants are certified, which includes Foodsphere. Meanwhile, only 2 cheese manufacturing sites are certified, with Foodsphere as one of the two. Foodsphere has also set in place its own internal standards that recognize best practices as ear ly as 2003. http://www.malaya.com.ph/business-news/living/how-cdo-foodsphere-produces-world-class-products
