The Foreign Supplier Verification Program, or FSVP, is one part of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) (2011). Published on November 27, 2015, this portion of FSMA deals with the requirements surrounding food safety of imported goods intended for human consumption in the US. Our FSVP workshop is based on the FSPCA’s curriculum. This course is offered as a two-day program.
Our Sanitary Transportation one-day professional workshop covers the new FDA requirements for Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food. The new regulations include vehicles and transportation equipment, transportation operations, training and records.
This is a new day in food safety in the United States. The FDA now has expanded enforcement abilities related to food safety in the US, and it is expected they will take advantage of this fact by regulating strictly and ensuring compliance. It will be crucial that importers and suppliers fully understand all the implications of this legislation, which parts apply, and how to demonstrate compliance and maintain the appropriate records to ensure successful continuation of business activities in the US.
