Later during the event, GFSI was delighted to announce the acknowledgement of China HACCP, a certification standard owned and maintained by CNCA, against Version 7 of the GFSI Technical Equivalence requirements. This comes as an important first step in this renewed collaboration supporting the GFSI vision of safe food for consumers everywhere.
