Aiming to better monitor and control food safety standards, Pritipaul Singh Investments Inc (PSI) has had eight of its employees certified by the Guyana National Bureau of Standards in the area of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP).

HACCP plans provide detailed instructions to companies on how they can properly preserve food. Failure to correctly follow these guidelines increases the chances of a major foodborne illness outbreak.

The certification paves the way for the seafood processing company to establish an HACCP, committee which is integral in order for the company to maintain the highest standards and quality in seafood processing.
