When most people hear the phrase food safety plan, they think about compliance. Something required. Something documented. Something filed away.
In reality, a food safety plan plays a much bigger role. It is one of the most important tools a foodservice operation has to protect its brand.

Today, food safety is brand safety. And the strength of your food safety plan often determines how well that brand is protected.
For many operators, building a food safety plan can feel overwhelming. The good news is that an effective plan does not need to be complex. It needs to reflect how food is actually handled every day.
Most successful food safety plans are built around a few core steps.
