Welcome to Food Care Solutions – Food Quality & Safety Management Solutions

The fundamental aim of Food Care Solutions is to help our clients achieve their goals in terms of food safety, food quality, customer satisfaction and legality. Whether this be through following the requirements of the legislation applying to the industry, or through compliance with food safety and quality standards, we endeavour to help you achieve the level you aspire to.

We are familiar with most of the third party standards (BRC, ISO 22000, IFS, etc), and with many of the standards laid down by some of the larger customer organisations (Tesco, Morrisons, Yum!, Wetherspoons to name but a few). We are also used to interpreting the requirements of standards we have not encountered before (although there are few of these now).

Victor Goodridge MSc

After a long and successful career in laboratory science, culminating in management responsibility for several facilities across the world, Victor returned to basics to work in a food safety laboratory with a food processing company.

Not being one to let the grass grow under his feet, he rapidly progressed from laboratory supervisor through technical management to production management. At this point, following downsizing of the company he worked for, Victor decided the way forward was to run a consultancy business helping any and every company that had the same forward looking approach to business.

 

Overview - Consultancy, Support and Training

Whether you are just starting up, have reached the point where you want to progress to certification against one of the standards, or have been certificated for some time and have “dropped a grade”, we have the knowledge, skill and experience to help you.

If you are not sure whether we do what you need, please ask - we probably do it, or we know someone who does. We find it is not possible to cover everything in a way that people would want to read.

Our aim is always to help you get where you want to be with as little fuss as possible - and not to change what does not need changing.
