FSSC 22000 for Cold Storage & Cold-Chain Operators

When you hold other people's food, your temperature control is their food safety. We build the FSMS that wins cold-chain contracts and passes GFSI audits.

What this sector needs

Cold stores and refrigerated-logistics operators are trusted to hold perishable food and feed at safe temperatures, often for major manufacturers and retailers. Temperature excursions, defrost management, stock rotation, segregation and traceability are the controls that protect the product — and your clients audit them hard.

FSSC 22000 (with the storage and transport prerequisites) is frequently a condition of cold-chain contracts. We build the management system around your facility and operation and prepare you for a GFSI-recognised certification audit.

Which certification fits you

Most businesses climb the same ladder. We help you certify at the level your buyers and regulators actually require — no more, no less.

HACCP

A documented hazard analysis with critical control points — the food safety foundation and the basis for Dubai Municipality food registration.

Start · DM registration

ISO 22000

A full food safety management system: HACCP plus prerequisite programmes, management commitment and continual improvement.

Structured FSMS

FSSC 22000

ISO 22000 plus sector-specific prerequisites and extra requirements — GFSI-recognised and accepted by global buyers.

How we get you certified

Four stages from first assessment to a successful certification audit. We build and run the system with you; an accredited certification body issues the certificate.

Gap assessment

We benchmark your current practices against the standard and DM requirements, and map exactly what is missing.

Build the system

We develop your HACCP plan, prerequisite programmes and FSMS documentation around your real process.

Internal audit & readiness

We train your team, run an internal audit and close gaps so you walk into the audit prepared.

Certification audit

An accredited certification body audits and issues the certificate. We support you through both stages and any findings.

Frequently asked questions

Why do cold stores need FSSC 22000?
Manufacturers and retailers that use third-party cold storage increasingly require their logistics partners to hold a GFSI-recognised certificate. FSSC 22000 with the transport-and-storage prerequisites is the usual requirement. We build it around your facility.
Which food safety scope does my business fall under?
Cold storage and refrigerated transport fall in the storage-and-transport scope for perishable food and feed. We define the scope to match your facility and fleet.
Does CorpBridge issue the certificate?
No. We prepare and implement your food safety management system and get your team audit-ready. The certificate itself is issued by an accredited certification body after a successful audit — keeping the consultancy and certification roles properly separate.
Do we need to validate temperature mapping?
Yes — temperature mapping of chambers and validation of monitoring are core controls auditors expect. We help you plan, document and maintain them so the system stands up at audit.
