We help people navigate the modern regulatory landscape of food production in the United States.

WHY HACCP?

Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plans are required for the following production and distribution practices in retail food establishments nationwide:

• Bottling unprocessed, fresh juice for distribution to retail outlets you do not own;
• Reduced oxygen packaging, including: vacuum packaging, sous-vide pasteurization, modified atmosphere packaging, cook-chill;
• Operating a live molluscan shellfish storage or display; 
• Smoking for preservation;
• Curing (cold-smoked salmon, salami, etc.)
• Using restricted ingredients/additives; and
• Sushi preparation and service

How Can LENZ FOOD SOLUTIONS Benefit Your Establishment?

We design food safety plans that are customized to your operation and product's unique process and which satisfy the legal requirements of your public health code. At your request, we also will assist you in navigating the federal, state, or municipality's approval process and train your staff to effectively and efficiently implement and monitor your HACCP plan.

Training for your staff can be arranged on-site or completed remotely via video conference. Our training module is based upon the USDA's National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Food's guidelines for developing and applying the principles of HACCP and satisfies the training requirements of federal, state, and local public health authorities.

We serve clients across the United States operating under a variety of jurisdictions: local, state, federal (USDA, FDA), and dual-jurisdiction establishments. 

Are You Interested in Creating a Cured Meats Program in Your Retail Food Facility?

If you wish to prepare ready-to-eat (RTE), shelf-stable, fermented and dried meat products, such as pepperoni and salami, on your premises, you will require a variance, an exemption from some statutes of your public health code. We are prepared to build for you a sound HACCP plan that demonstrates the wholesomeness of this type of food product and obtain the variance necessary to legally produce and serve it at your facility.
