Practical Food Safety Support You Can Rely On
Food safety should give you confidence, not create additional pressure.
At The Food Safety Company, we provide practical, independent food safety consultancy to help businesses identify risk, meet their legal and regulatory responsibilities, and maintain high standards every day.
With extensive experience across hospitality, healthcare, retail, food production and other food businesses, our team provides more than advice. We work alongside you and your team to understand your business, identify what needs to improve and support you in putting the right solutions in place.
Whether you need an independent food safety audit, a new or updated HACCP plan, or support opening a new food business, we are here to guide you through the process.
Our Food Safety Consultancy Services
1. Independent Food Safety Audits
Our food safety audits provide an independent, objective assessment of your food safety standards and practices.
Conducted by an experienced food safety professional, our audits are designed to identify risks, highlight areas for improvement and provide clear, practical recommendations for corrective action.
We don’t simply identify problems. We help you understand what needs to be done and support you and your team in getting it right.
Our audits can help you:
- Independently assess the effectiveness of your Food Safety Management System
- Identify food safety risks and areas of non-compliance
- Prioritise corrective actions based on risk
- Provide your team with practical advice and guidance
- Proactively manage food safety rather than waiting for issues to arise
- Prepare for Environmental Health Officer inspections or third-party audits
- Maintain and continually improve food safety standards
Our experienced consultants use dedicated auditing software developed exclusively by The Food Safety Company. This enables us to provide detailed, consistent reports that clearly identify findings, recommended corrective actions and supporting photographic evidence.
Independent expertise. Practical recommendations. Ongoing support.
2. HACCP Development & Review
Your HACCP plan should reflect how your business actually operates.
Whether you are starting a new food business, introducing new processes or simply need to bring an existing HACCP system up to date, our experienced food safety professionals can develop, review and update your Food Safety Management System.
We work with you to ensure your HACCP plan is practical, relevant to your operation and understood by your team.
Our HACCP consultancy can include:
- Development of a new HACCP plan
- Review and updating of existing HACCP plans
- Hazard analysis and identification of appropriate controls
- Review of prerequisite programmes
- Process and flow diagram development
- Identification of critical control points
- Monitoring and verification procedures
- Supporting food safety documentation

We take the time to understand your business rather than providing a generic template.
Your HACCP plan should work for your business — and we can help make sure it does.
