Training & Capacity Building: Strengthening Food Safety Compliance from Within
In the fast-paced world of food importation and production, compliance doesn’t stop at documentation — it starts with your people. Proper training ensures that your team not only understands the regulations but can also apply them confidently and consistently. That’s where Training and Capacity Building becomes more than just a requirement — it becomes your competitive edge.
At FSVPServices.com, we design and deliver customized training programs that align with FDA regulations under 21 CFR 117.4 and 121.160, ensuring that your staff is fully prepared to meet food safety and supplier verification requirements.
Why Training Is a Regulatory Requirement
Under 21 CFR 117.4, individuals engaged in manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding food must receive appropriate training in food hygiene and food safety. For those handling supply-chain programs or import responsibilities, understanding the Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) is essential.
21 CFR 121.160 also requires personnel to be trained in food defense awareness—a critical layer of protection against intentional adulteration.
Without consistent and role-appropriate training, even the most well-documented programs can fail in execution, leaving your company vulnerable to noncompliance and enforcement action.
