Food Safety Training & Certification Program

FOSTAC (Food Safety Training & Certification) is an initiative developed by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) to promote safe food handling practices across the food industry. The program equips food business owners and employees with the knowledge and practical skills required to maintain food safety, hygiene, and regulatory compliance.

Every certified participant becomes better prepared to implement food safety systems that protect consumers and support business growth.
