Exmoor Caviar SALSA Certificate
What is SALSA?
Taken from the SALSA website:
Written by experienced food safety experts, SALSA is a robust and effective food safety certification scheme which is appropriate for smaller food producers and processors.
Approved suppliers can demonstrate that they operate to standards that are recognised and accepted across the industry and exceed the minimum standards expected by enforcement authorities.
SALSA approval is only granted to suppliers who are able to demonstrate to an auditor that they are able to produce safe and legal food and are committed to continually meeting the requirements of the SALSA standard.
SALSA is a non-profit making joint venture founded by the four main trade associations representing the UK Food Chain featured on the right. The Institute of Food Science and Technology operate the scheme throughout the UK. All of these bodies make up the independently chaired Governance Committee which oversee the SALSA scheme.
SALSA's Purpose: To provide affordable food safety assurance certification and support for small and micro businesses in the United Kingdom.
SALSA's Values
To achieve our purpose, the following values lie at the heart of all SALSA's activities and thinking:
