We are proud to have supported Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels in achieving Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) certification for three of its properties: Shandrani Beachcomber, Dinarobin Beachcomber and Royal Palm Beachcomber.
From breakfast buffets to fine dining experiences, food plays a central role in the guest journey. At Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels, this journey is now backed by a globally recognized food safety standard.
A strong commitment to food safety
This certification highlights Beachcomber Group’s ongoing commitment to quality, hygiene and guest wellbeing.
“At Beachcomber Resorts & Hotels, we take food safety seriously,” says Sanaa Nubheebucus, Risk & Compliance – Food Safety Manager at Beachcomber. “Achieving HACCP certification demonstrates our unwavering dedication to food safety. For our clients and guests, this certification serves as a guarantee that we adhere to the highest standards in food handling and preparation and shows our commitment to maintaining rigorous food safety standards.”
What is HACCP?
HACCP is an internationally recognized system for reducing the risk of safety hazards in food. It involves identifying, evaluating and controlling hazards that are significant for food safety and can be applied throughout the food chain.
It is a key element of the CODEX General Principles of Food Hygiene. Based on seven principles, it focuses on hazard analysis, identification of critical control points, setting of critical limits, monitoring, corrective actions, verification procedures and documentation.
Benefits of HACCP Certification
HACCP certification helps organizations to:
- Demonstrate compliance with local and international food regulations
- Prevent foodborne illnesses through proactive risk management
- Gain access to new markets and business opportunities
- Build trust among clients, guests and stakeholders by offering transparency and quality assurance
Sana explains: “By implementing HACCP principles, we proactively identify and mitigate potential food safety hazards at every stage of food preparation and service.”
