Food Safety in New Zealand

In New Zealand, every food business operating under the Food Act 2014 must follow a Food Control Plan (FCP) to ensure food is safe to eat. These plans are based on internationally recognised HACCP principles and verified by local councils under guidance from the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).

Most hospitality businesses register their FCP with their local council, and council food safety officers verify compliance on a regular cycle. The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) sets national food safety rules and publishes FCP templates.

  • Standards & templates: MPI sets the rules and provides FCP templates.
  • Registration: Businesses usually register with their local council.
  • Verification: Councils (or appointed verifiers) check FCP records and practices.

Stop wasting time, paper, and money. EasyOps provides digital tools that help hospitality teams record, monitor, and review their FCP records-supporting a more efficient, and environmentally friendly operation.

Note: The information above is a general overview to help you understand the NZ food safety landscape. Always refer to the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and your local council for the latest official requirements.
