The Carrinho Industrial Complex has achieved a significant milestone in food safety. In fact, factories in the complex have obtained the prestigious international food safety certification FSSC 22000, awarded by SGS.
This recognition, therefore, reflects the Group’s commitment to food safety and the quality of our products, aligning with the vision by 2030.
What is FSSC 22000 Certification?
FSSC 22000 (Food Safety System Certification) is one of the most demanding standards in the food sector. Through it, we ensure that all stages of the production chain – from the selection of raw materials to the delivery of products to the consumer – follow strict international food safety standards. Consequently, this certification increases consumer confidence, as we ensure that our products are manufactured under the highest levels of quality and safety control.

The certification was awarded by SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance), a global leader in inspection, verification, testing and certification. With more than 140 years of experience and a presence in more than 140 countries, SGS is recognized for promoting the continuous improvement of production processes and ensuring compliance with rigorous standards.
Impact on the Agri-food Sector and Public Health
With this certification, we strengthen our role in the agri-food sector. In addition, we reaffirm our commitment to increasing food security and contributing to public health, especially in Angola, where the quality of basic food products is essential.
Obtaining FSSC 22000 certification is undoubtedly a crucial milestone in meeting our goals in continuously strengthening food safety. In addition, it promotes high standards of quality that benefit both local consumers and the global market.
