Stay Compliant and Reduce Risk with Our FSVP Audit
Inspection & Consulting

Make sure the food you import into the United States is in compliance with the FSMA Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP). FSVP compliance impacts importers, agents, representatives of foreign companies, and shippers or carriers of food coming into the United States. Under the FSVP program, the FDA can request your records, which you must produce within 24 hours. Are you ready?

Our two-day FSVP Compliance Audit is your independent set of eyes to check that your FSVP program meets regulatory requirements and is running effectively and efficiently. A compliant, well-run FSVP will help you minimize your food safety risks.

Food Importers
Companies that directly import food into the United States must ensure their foreign suppliers meet FDA standards. The audit helps verify that all required procedures and documentation are in place.

Distribution Centers
Facilities that handle imported food products should ensure compliance to avoid disruptions in their supply chain and potential penalties from the FDA.

Manufacturing Facilities Using Imported Ingredients
Manufacturers that source ingredients from foreign suppliers need to verify that these ingredients meet U.S. safety standards, which the FSVP Compliance Audit can help ensure.

Third-Party Logistics Providers (3PLs)
Companies involved in the storage, transportation, or handling of imported food products can benefit from the audit to ensure compliance with FSVP regulations and avoid liabilities.

Foreign Food Companies with U.S. Representation
Representatives or agents of foreign companies responsible for compliance with U.S. regulations can use the audit to ensure their FSVP programs are robust and compliant.

During your FSVP audit, we will want to see your records on:

  • Approved foreign suppliers
  • Supplier approval practices and verification activities
  • Vendor scorecards
  • Hazard analysis
  • Corrective actions
  • Periodic reassessments
