Businesses that transport, store, or handle food products have real food safety obligations under NZ law. Whether you operate a cold chain business, a food distribution network, or a logistics operation that handles food as part of a broader portfolio, your compliance requirements matter.
Transport and Logistics
Food businesses involved in the transport and storage of food products may be required to register under a Food Control Plan or National Programme, depending on the nature of their activities. For businesses operating under the Animal Products Act, additional RMP obligations may apply. Temperature control, traceability, and hygiene requirements are central to compliance in this sector.
- Understanding what food safety obligations apply to your specific activities
- Temperature control documentation and verification across a transport chain
- HACCP programme development for food handling and storage operations
- Traceability requirements for food products in transit
- Supplier and customer audit requirements for food safety accreditation
- Audit preparation for verifier or customer audits
