Welcome to Safe Food Mitra
Our Quality and Regulatory Compliance team continually reviews and evaluates emerging regulations and industry practices to ensure PEP is meeting the latest requirements and best practices. PEP's elements meet or exceed current Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) standards. In addition, all Hershey-owned manufacturing facilities are GFSI certified, which is an independent verification of the strength of our food safety and quality systems.1 But our success is more than our programs - people are at the core.
All Hershey products are designed and produced under a hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls (HARPC) approach, which is part of the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act.
To drive the right behaviors around food safety and quality, we have standardized our manufacturing facility personnel onboarding and annual refresher training. This training is required for 100% of our manufacturing facility employees and is incorporated into the integration process for any acquired manufacturing facilities. Additionally, specific food safety and quality training programs were created and implemented for Hershey quality assurance, engineering, compliance and marketing professionals.
Food Safety in Our Value Chain - and Beyond
Hershey sources 100% of ingredients from suppliers approved through the Hershey Supplier Quality Management Program, which is defined and executed in compliance with applicable GFSI and regulatory requirements. Hershey has also been working with suppliers to help them achieve certification under a recognized GFSI standard and has made great progress toward the goal of sourcing 100% of our ingredients from GFSI-certified suppliers. As of the end of 2021, 93.8% of our suppliers globally have achieved certification, covering 99.8% of our sourced ingredients by spend.
In 2021, we became a member of the Alliance to Stop Foodborne Illness (STOP), a national nonprofit that brings together food industry companies, industry members and the Food and Drug Administration. The Alliance is collaboratively designing and implementing innovative and tailored programs to integrate motivational elements of personal stories into food safety culture and training programs. In addition, the Alliance is building broader education and awareness by engaging small and medium companies across the supply chain.
