SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2016
FOOD QUALITY
AND SAFETY
The concept of food safety – comprising the concepts of availability, ac-
cessibility, use and stability of the food for fitness for consumption – is
the basis of the Ibersol Group’s performance as an agent acting in the
food service area, what is also a guarantee of satisfaction and trust for
the customers. In this sense, Ibersol implements in all its units, regardless
of the markets where we operate, a Food Service System which ensures
the highest standards of quality, and also includes obviously the supply
of safe food items to the end user. Following this line of action, in 2016,
the certification pursuant to the Standard NP EN ISO 22000: Food Safety
Management Systems was renewed, as well as the certification ISO 22000
in Angola (which covers the whole logistics chain of KFC and its logistics
operator based at the Viana’s Industrial Pole). The certification of the Inte-
grated Management Systems of the Group was once more achieved, under
the standards:
• NP EN ISO 9001: Quality Management Systems, NP EN ISO 14001: En-
vironmental Management Systems, and NP 4397:2008/ OHSAS 18001:
Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems, in the context of
food service operations of the Ibersol Group and food service provision in
VOG-Tecmaia;
• NP EN ISO 22000: Food Safety Management Systems in the context of the
food chain management of the food service operations of the Ibersol Group.
