HACCP is a planned management system to ensure safety, soundness and quality of food. The Jongga introduces CCP to our entire process, manages the process with the standards set by each CCP branch, and prevents harm in advance for food safety. In particular, Hoengseong plant and Geochang plant were designated as HACCP-applied facility in 2004 and still maintains the qualifications.
HALAL certifies that it is not against Islamic law, and can be certified if three factors can be avoided: Poisonous, Intoxicate and Hazardous. Since 2010, Jongga’s Geochang plant has been certified HALAL (Haral) for products of whole cabbage kimchi, young radish kimchi, deliciously sliced kimchi, delicious pickled young radishes and still maintains the certification.
KOSHER, which is recognized as “can be eaten in Judaism” according to food law called Kashrut, is based on the Pentateuch of Moses and Jewish tradition. It indicates a “clean and safe food” because it goes through strict standards and procedures from selecting ingredients to cook. Our Geochang plant has been certified as a KOSHER for flavor kimchi products since 2014, and still maintains the certification.
Internationally recognized food safety standard certification of FSSC 22000 contributes to the establishment and continuous management of food safety management system. Our plant in Geochang received FSSC 22000 certification in August 2017, and still maintains the certification.
