FSSC 22000 Consultant in Pakistan
Plant track — for food manufacturers · Lahore · Karachi · Faisalabad · Islamabad · Peshawar
FICS prepares Pakistani food manufacturers for FSSC 22000 certification. We run a gap analysis against ISO 22000, the sector PRP requirements (ISO/TS 22002-1 for food manufacturing) and the FSSC additional requirements, then build and implement the system with your team until you are ready for the certification body’s audit.
Who this is for
- Food plants that have an export buyer or multinational customer asking for a GFSI-recognised certificate
- Plants already holding ISO 22000 or HACCP that want to upgrade to FSSC 22000
- Dairy, bakery, snacks, beverage, meat, spice and ready-meal manufacturers
- QA managers who need an outside lead to drive the project and hold deadlines
What we do
- On-site gap analysis of documents, PRPs and the production floor
- Food safety management system documentation: policy, objectives, procedures and records
- PRP upgrades: hygiene zoning, pest control, cleaning, maintenance, allergen and foreign-matter control
- HACCP/hazard analysis rebuild with OPRPs and CCPs that the floor can actually monitor
- FSSC additional requirements: food defence, food fraud vulnerability, environmental monitoring, quality control and labelling
- Internal audit programme and management review set-up
- Certification-body selection support and pre-audit (mock) audit

How it works: Assess → Plan → Implement → Verify
- Assess: site visit, document review and gap scoring against FSSC 22000.
- Plan: project plan with priorities — what blocks certification first, what can follow.
- Implement: documents, PRP fixes and training delivered with your QA and production teams.
- Verify: internal audit, mock audit and support through stage 1 and stage 2 findings.
FICS is a consultancy. Certificates, licences and inspection results are issued by certification bodies and food authorities; we prepare your system, site and team for them.
Frequently asked questions
Does FICS issue the FSSC 22000 certificate?
No. Certificates are issued only by FSSC-licensed certification bodies. FICS prepares your system, site and people so you are ready for their audit.
How long does FSSC 22000 implementation take?
It depends on your starting point, site condition and how quickly fixes are approved. After the gap analysis we give you a realistic timeline rather than a fixed promise.
What is the difference between ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000?
FSSC 22000 includes ISO 22000 plus sector-specific PRPs (such as ISO/TS 22002-1) and FSSC additional requirements. It is GFSI-recognised, which is why many international buyers ask for it.
We already have HACCP. Do we start from zero?
No. An existing HACCP plan and PRPs are a useful base. The gap analysis shows what can be kept, what needs upgrading and what is missing.
Do you work outside Lahore?
Yes. We support plants across Pakistan, including Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, Islamabad and Peshawar. جی ہاں، ہم پورے پاکستان میں کام کرتے ہیں۔
