Frequently asked questions
Does a “may contain” statement protect the company?
No. A precautionary statement does not replace risk control, and GFSI standards require it to rest on a documented assessment. Used everywhere, it narrows the choice for allergic consumers and worries the buyer. The course gives a decision rule.
Which regulation applies to our exported products?
That of the country of sale. For the European Union, the list of fourteen allergens and the labelling rules of the FIC Regulation apply; other markets have their own lists. The course compares these requirements with those of the Moroccan market for your products.
Who should attend the day?
Quality, production, R&D, purchasing and cleaning supervisors. Purchasing and R&D are as concerned as production: many incidents come from a supplier or recipe change that was not assessed.
