Why should you use this PAS?

PAS 221 specifies requirements for establishing, implementing and maintaining prerequisite programmes (PRPs) to assist in controlling food safety risks in retail. It ensures a common international methodology for the development of PRPs across the food retail sector and was created in response to the industry’s need to improve the management of supply chain quality and mitigate associated risks.

The standard gives guidance regarding the selection and management of suppliers, provides measures for the prevention of cross contamination and makes specific references to managing the processing and selling of food products by all food retailers, including supermarket chains. Other topics covered include waste handling, storage and pest control.

PRPs can be self-assessed as well as audited against by competent certifying bodies.

PAS 221 is part of a series of PASs which tackle different elements of the food chain. This series includes PRPs for food manufacturing, animal feed and packaging.
