ISO22000 Food Safety Management System is one of the standards for food safety management systems. With the development of economic globalization and the improvement of social civilization, people are increasingly concerned about food safety issues; Organizations that produce, operate, and supply food are required to demonstrate their ability to control food safety hazards and factors that affect food safety. The expectations of customers and the responsibility of society have gradually made organizations involved in food production, operation, and supply realize that there should be standards to guide, ensure, and evaluate food safety management. This call for standards has led to the emergence of requirements for food safety management systems. Standards are not only guidance standards for describing the requirements of food safety management systems, but also the basis for organizational certification and registration for food production, operation, and supply.

The ISO22000 food safety management system is specifically applicable to the following types of enterprises:

1. The processing and manufacturing industry of food and feed, such as food producers, manufacturers of animal and pet feed;

2. Catering industry: such as catering companies, restaurants, unit canteens, and catering companies;

3. Retail, transportation, and storage: such as food retailers, transportation and storage service providers (limited to applying for ISO22000 only);

4. Auxiliary services: such as manufacturers of food packaging materials;

5. Production of biological chemicals: such as producers of food and feed additives, manufacturers of vitamins and nutrients, etc;

6. Special industries.
