ISO 22000 aligned

A food safety management system that covers every step from raw cashew reception to final dispatch — protecting product integrity and customer trust.

What ISO 22000 means for us

ISO 22000 combines the principles of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) with a full management system approach. At Lhacienda Factory, this means documented procedures, trained personnel, verified equipment cleaning schedules and continuous monitoring of food safety hazards across the plant.

Key controls in our system

  • Supplier approval and raw-nut intake inspection
  • Defined CCPs for moisture, foreign bodies and aflatoxin
  • Sanitation and pest-control programmes
  • Traceability from lot code to cooperative plot
  • Internal audits and management review cycles
  • Corrective action logs for every non-conformance

Committed to certification

Our facility is built and operated to meet ISO 22000 requirements from day one, with a clear roadmap to full third-party certification as production ramps up. Buyers receive transparent documentation of our food safety status and audit progress.
