NEWS: Move Intermodal Achieves FSSC 22000 Certification: Food Safety You Can Rely On

A Significant Milestone for Move Intermodal

Obtaining FSSC 22000 certification is not a simple administrative exercise. It requires a genuine investment in people, processes and continuous improvement.

Over recent months, our teams have worked intensively to strengthen and document our management systems, assess and manage risks, enhance operational controls, improve traceability and provide targeted training across the organisation. The process also required a critical review of our procedures to ensure food safety is considered at every stage of our operations.

Achieving this standard reflects the commitment of our employees and management team to consistency, control and accountability. For Move Intermodal, it is an important validation of the way we work every day: with a strong focus on quality, compliance, customer satisfaction and continuous improvement.

What FSSC 22000 Means in Practice

FSSC 22000 is one of the world’s leading food safety management certification schemes. It provides a structured framework that helps organisations identify, manage and continuously improve food safety risks within their operations.

Our certification covers the ambient intermodal and road transport of packed and dry bulk food products. We have deliberately defined this scope clearly and specifically, so customers know exactly what our food safety management system covers. A precise scope removes ambiguity and gives you confidence that the products you entrust to us are handled under an independently verified system built for their requirements.

At Move Intermodal, food safety is overseen by our HACCP team, a multidisciplinary group of colleagues from different departments. By bringing together expertise from across the business, they continuously evaluate risks, review procedures and identify opportunities for improvement. This ensures food safety is considered at every stage of our operations, rather than treated as a separate exercise.

Achieving FSSC 22000 required us to take a critical look at our processes, strengthen controls, improve traceability and further increase awareness throughout the organisation. The result is a more robust food safety management system that helps our customers reduce risks and meet increasingly stringent market requirements.

For customers involved in food and feed logistics, this provides added confidence that their products are handled within an environment where food safety, traceability and quality are treated as core business priorities. In practical terms, it reinforces our commitment to:

• Risk-based decision making.
• Documented and controlled operational processes.
• Strong traceability throughout the supply chain.
• Employee awareness and training.
• Ongoing monitoring and performance improvement.

These are not one-off initiatives but integral parts of how we manage our operations every day.

Why GFSI Recognition Matters

An important aspect of the FSSC 22000 scheme is that it is a GFSI recognised certification.

The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) is a widely respected international benchmark that evaluates food safety certification programmes against rigorous requirements. As a result, FSSC 22000 has become a widely accepted food safety management frameworks worldwide.

For multinational manufacturers, retailers, food producers, feed producers and other supply chain partners, GFSI recognition creates an additional level of confidence and consistency across global supply chains. Working with a logistics partner that holds a GFSI recognised certification offers several benefits:

• Confidence that food safety practices align with internationally recognised standards.
• Greater consistency across supply chain partners and regions.
• Support for supplier approval and procurement requirements.
• Enhanced transparency and independently verified processes.
• Reduced complexity when working across multiple markets.

For organisations operating internationally, GFSI recognition helps create a common language for food safety and quality management throughout the supply chain.

What This Means for Our Customers

As a provider of intermodal logistics and transport solutions, Move Intermodal plays a critical role in connecting manufacturers, producers and supply chain partners across Europe. Customers entrust us with products that often form part of essential food and feed supply chains, and that responsibility requires more than reliable transport capacity. It requires disciplined processes, strong governance and a culture focused on doing things the right way.

Our FSSC 22000 certification strengthens the assurance we can offer customers seeking a certified logistics provider. In practice, it means our customers benefit from:

• Greater confidence in a certified logistics partner.
• Stronger traceability throughout the supply chain.
• Reduced food safety risks.
• Compliance with internationally recognised, GFSI recognised standards.
• The assurance that food safety is actively monitored and continuously improved.

Together, these reinforce our broader commitment to supply chain quality, food grade transport and operational excellence across every service we provide.

A Commitment That Continues Beyond Certification

“Achieving FSSC 22000 certification is an important milestone for Move Intermodal, but it is not our end goal. It reflects the commitment of our teams to quality, food safety and operational excellence. Our customers expect reliable, compliant and transparent logistics services, and this certification further strengthens our ability to meet those expectations.

Looking Ahead

The achievement of FSSC 22000 certification marks an important step in our ongoing journey to strengthen quality, compliance and customer service. As supply chains continue to evolve, the need for reliable and trustworthy logistics partners will only grow.

Food safety is not the responsibility of a single organisation. It is a shared commitment that spans producers, manufacturers, logistics providers, retailers and every link in between. For us, FSSC 22000 is more than a certification. It is a reflection of how we work: with care, responsibility and a continuous focus on improvement.
