Frequently asked questions
Can FICS get our licence approved?
No consultant can guarantee approval; the food authority decides. We make sure your application and premises meet the requirements before you apply.
We received an improvement notice. Can you help?
Yes. We review the notice, prioritise the corrections and help you document the actions taken.
Do you work with food authorities outside Punjab?
Yes. Requirements differ by province, so we work to the authority that covers your site, such as the Sindh Food Authority or the KP Food Safety & Halal Food Authority.
