Food Safety

At Viva o Sabor, the safety of the food you consume is our number one priority. We know that product quality and safety are fundamental to our customers’ health and well-being. That’s why we adopt strict food safety procedures, aligned with international best practices, to ensure that every item that reaches your table is safe, fresh, and of high quality.

Why is Food Safety so Important?

Food safety goes beyond simple hygiene. It involves a set of practices and procedures aimed at preventing, eliminating, or reducing risks that could compromise food quality. These risks can be:

• Biological: Such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that can cause diseases.

• Chemical: Such as pesticide residues or cleaning products.

• Physical: Such as fragments of glass, metal, or plastic that can contaminate food.

Lack of control in these aspects can lead to public health problems, product recalls, and loss of consumer trust. Therefore, food safety is essential not only to protect health but also to ensure the reputation and credibility of companies in the sector.

How Does Viva O Sabor Ensure Food Safety?

Since the company’s creation, we have followed a rigorous food safety system based on HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) principles, an internationally recognized methodology. Here are some of the practices we adopt:

1. Safe Reception:

   • All products are inspected upon receipt. We check the integrity of packaging, the temperature of refrigerated and frozen products, and the expiration dates of items.
   • We work only with certified and reliable suppliers who share our commitment to quality.

1. Proper Storage:

   • Our stocks are monitored with sensors that ensure the ideal temperature for each type of product.
   • We use the FIFO (First In, First Out) system to ensure that older products are sold first, avoiding expiration.

1. Quality Control:

   • We have a traceability system that allows us to identify the origin of each batch of products, ensuring transparency and safety.

1. Careful Dispatch:

   • Before shipping products, we perform a final check to ensure they are within the expiration date and have intact packaging.
   • We use safe and appropriate packaging to protect food during transport.

1. Traceability and Recall: Protecting You at Every Step:

   • Traceability is essential for your safety. We use an advanced system that records the origin, path, and expiration date of each batch, allowing us to act quickly in case of recalls. This ensures that affected products are quickly identified and isolated, minimizing risks. Your safety is our priority, and we are always prepared to protect you with transparency and efficiency.

1. Continuous Education

   • We believe that continuous training is essential to maintain the highest quality standards.
