FOOD SAFETY PLANS
Safety First!
"A food safety plan shouldn’t just be a binder on a shelf; it should be the invisible shield that protects your business every single day." — Wayne Brassett
At Navigate Food, we understand the intricacies of this ever-evolving NZ Food Safety industry, and we stand ready to be your trusted partner on this journey.
Our primary goal is to safeguard not only the ultimate consumers of your food product but also to ensure that your vision for the product is fully realised. We recognise that each step in the journey from conception to market involves critical considerations, including MPI Food safety regulatory compliance, safety protocols, and quality assurance. As expert Wellington food safety consultants, our 25 years of experience and expertise are at your disposal to navigate these complexities effectively.
We work closely with you to develop a tailored plan that not only adheres to stringent safety standards but also aligns with your product's unique characteristics and market aspirations.Â

These include:
​
National Programme 1, 2, 3 Certification (NP1, 2, 3)
BRC Certification
Approved Supplier Program (Foodstuffs Compliance)
Non-Conformance Reporting
Corrective and Preventative Actions
When it comes to food safety and NZ food technology innovation, there is absolutely no room for "she'll be right." At Navigate Food, we take our "Safety First!" motto very seriously because we know that a single safety issue can end a business overnight. Acting as your expert food safety auditor, we will ensure that it never happens to you.
We also understand that food safety regulations, such as the New Zealand Food Act 2014, and the various National Programmes (NP1, NP2, NP3) can feel overwhelming. We simplify the process by working closely with you to develop a tailored food safety plan that actually makes sense for your specific operations.
Whether you are a small Wellington cafe or a large-scale Lower Hutt food manufacturer, we help you identify your risks, food and safety training, and set up monitoring procedures that your team can follow with ease.
We don't just help you write the plan; we help you implement it and stay compliant as you grow. If you are aiming for BRC Certification or need to meet the Foodstuffs Approved Supplier Program requirements, we have the technical expertise to get you there. We also help you handle the "tricky stuff," like Non-Conformance Reporting and putting in place Corrective and Preventative Actions that actually work.
We are your partners in quality assurance, helping you navigate the ever-changing regulatory landscape so you can sleep soundly knowing your customers are safe and your vision is protected. Our goal is to make food safety a natural part of your business culture, not a hurdle to be feared.
