Company Accreditation

ISO 9001:2000
is a system for quality management that emphasizes on achieving customer satisfaction through continuous improvements in business processes including activity management, resource management, and product analysis and realization. It is established, operated and updated within the framework of a structured management system and incorporated into the overall management activities of the organization. We have ISO certification from the Indonesian quality assurance certification agency (MALQA (Mutuagung Lestari Quality Assurance)) and an independent, third party assessment and accredited certification for systems and products world-wide (given by BM TRADA).

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point)
is a preventive system to ensure safety of food products. This international standard requires that all hazards that may occur in the food production chain, including hazards associated with processing and facilities, are identified and assessed. HACCP consists of seven basic components: hazard analysis, critical control points, critical limits, monitoring procedure, corrective action, record keeping and verification procedure. In October 2005 we were the first company outside the US to receive HACCP certification from the US Department of Commerce.

HACCP USDC
was introduced in July 1992 by NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) Fisheries - an agency under the US Department of Commerce - this procedure focuses on seafood product inspection using HACCP protocol. The procedure is aimed at ensuring quality consistency of end products with safe and healthy distribution and appropriate food labeling.

British Retailers Consortium Issue 5
is a standard made and released by the British Retailers Consortium, including Tesco, Sainsburys, Iceland Foods, Waitrose, Safeway and ASDA stores. BRC Global Standard requires implementation of HACCP, ISO 9001:2000 and management of facility environment, products, processes and personnel.

GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices)
are a set of regulations set forth by the FDA to ensure that various products intended for human consumption and use are safe and provides production and technical guidance for companies to manufacture products to meet safety and quality standards by improving seafood processing facilities in seven areas, including selection of raw material, handling and processing, additives, chemicals, packaging, storage and distribution.

IFT (International Food Technology)
is an independent auditor that certifies food processing plants, mainly requested by US customers.

ACC
As a world class integrated shrimp industry, CPB implements Best Aquaculture Practices to comply international standard requirements concerning environment and social issues, food safety, and traceability. This compliance has been certified by Aquaculture Certification Council (ACC) an international reputable independent certification body based in Kirkland, USA (web: http://www.aquaculturecertification.org). Meaning that CPB has been implementing a responsible shrimp culture in every step (from hatchery, farm, through out the processing plant) to produce its product.

ISO 22000
It is a big concern of CPB that all products should fulfill the international requirements concerning food safety. ISO 22000 certification put more attention on food safety rather than social and environmental issues. ISO 22000 does not develop its standard but emphasizing on the implementation of food safety management to achieve our standard quality. Our compliance has been certified by ProCert, an international reputable independent certification body based in Holzikofenweg, Bern (web: http://www.procert.ch). Meaning that our company is well managed, “we are doing what we have to do”.

GLOBALGAP (formerly known as EUREPGAP) has established itself as a key reference for Good Agricultural Practices (G.A.P.) in the global market place, by translating consumer requirements into agricultural production. Globalgap uses GAP as a production standard for the certification of good agricultural practice in the agricultural and horticultural industry. Globalgap is based on the principles of risk prevention, risk analysis and HACCP, sustainable agriculture by means of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and Integrated Crop Management (ICM), using existing technologies for the continuous improvement of farming systems.
