As of September 2018, ALL food processors, including small ones, are REQUIRED to have a food safety plan that includes an analysis of hazards and risk-based preventative controls to minimize or prevent identified hazards. Having a proper food safety plan is also needed if you plan to grow into national, regional, or local markets such as Walmart, Costco, Albertsons, Whole Foods or the Boise Co-op.
If you are ready to create your plan, WE CAN HELP! We are looking for six small food manufacturers to participate in the first cohort of our Idaho Food Safety Cooperative (IFSC). The course begins August 14 at Boise State and will meet for 6 afternoon sessions on 8/14, 8/28, 9/11, 9/25, 10/16, 11/6. This course will give you everything you need to create a Food Safety Plan that puts you in compliance with new regulations of the Food Safety Modernization Act.
 "This is a REALLY exciting opportunity for small food companies to receive the instruction, templates, and coaching needed to complete a FSMA compliant food safety plan - For FREE!"
Catherine Cantley, Food Processing Specialist with TechHelp and Assistant Professor at the University of Idaho School of Food Science will lead the IFSC Program.
The $2,400 cost of this program WILL BE REFUNDED if you COMPLETE the program and your food safety plan. We will provide up to 6 hours of 1-1 consulting to help you complete your plan!
