Food Safety Certification & Audit Support

Prepare, Pass, and Maintain Your Food Safety Certification with Confidence

Food safety certifications are increasingly required by regulators, retailers, and global supply chain partners. Achieving and maintaining certification requires strong documentation, trained staff, validated food safety controls, and continuous compliance.

At Iron Apple, we provide expert certification preparation, audit readiness consulting, and ongoing compliance support for food businesses across Canada and the United States.

Our team helps companies successfully prepare for and pass certifications such as HACCP, SQF, and BRCGS, while also ensuring compliance with regulations enforced by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Certification Readiness Assessments

Before pursuing certification, businesses must ensure their food safety system meets the required standard.

We conduct a full certification readiness assessment to evaluate:

Food safety documentation and SOPs

Monitoring and verification records
Traceability and recall procedures
Staff training and competency

Our certification consulting services support businesses across the food industry, including:

Food brokers and co-packers

Every program we develop is customized to your business’s unique risks and operations.

Food Safety Program Development

Many companies lack the supporting programs required for certification success.

We help develop essential prerequisite programs, including:

Sanitation and cleaning programs
Allergen management procedures
Supplier approval and verification programs
Environmental monitoring plans
Internal Audit & Mock Audit Services

One of the most effective ways to prepare for certification is to simulate a real audit with a mock audit. These help companies:

Identify non-conformities before the real audit
Train staff for auditor interviews
Strengthen documentation and records
Improve audit confidence

Whether you are preparing for your first certification audit, responding to major audit findings, or maintaining ongoing compliance, we provide practical, industry-specific support that helps companies pass audits and operate safer food systems.
