Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Guide For Spices
ASTA's Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Guide for Spices was revised in January 2023 to align with new FSMA cGMP provisions. The goal of this document is to provide the spice industry with a tool to highlight and focus on Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) critical for the safe production of spices and provide an overview of domestic and global food safety and hygiene principles. The guidance was initially published in 2015 and then revised in 2023 to align with the Food and Drug Administration’s current Good Manufacturing practices.
