Auditing Organisation Recognition (AOR) Programme

Under the Auditing Organisation Recognition (AOR) Programme, the Auditing organisations (AOs) conduct audits on food manufacturing establishments that manufacture meat and fish products for export. These manufacturers must pass the annual audits before they can apply for export certificates from SFA.

The audit is carried out by an AO that assesses whether the food manufacturer has put in place necessary systems and processes to safeguard the food safety of the exported food products.

AOs must obtain SFA’s approval to be recognised under the AOR Programme before they can conduct export audits.
