In today’s global food economy, food safety compliance is a non-negotiable standard. For companies operating in the food and beverage industry, the use of HACCP-compliant raw materials is essential to maintaining product integrity, passing regulatory audits, and meeting export requirements.

One such vital raw ingredient is corn grit — a staple used in the manufacturing of snack foods, cereals, porridges, and maize-based beverages. For brands looking to scale safely and sustainably, working with HACCP corn grit suppliers ensures traceability, hygiene, and international readiness.

In this article, we outline why HACCP matters, what to look for in a supplier, and how Wigmore Trading delivers certified corn grit solutions for processors across Nigeria and West Africa.

What is HACCP and Why It Matters for Corn Grit?

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a globally recognized system that identifies, monitors, and controls potential food safety risks across production stages.

For corn grit, this means:

• ✅ Sourced from clean, traceable maize inputs

• ✅ Milled in sanitary, pest-controlled environments

• ✅ Packaged to prevent cross-contamination and moisture retention

• ✅ Accompanied by documentation for audits and certifications

HACCP-certified corn grit is essential for:

• Export-oriented brands

• Retail food product manufacturers

• Institutional suppliers (hospitals, schools, food aid)

• FMCG companies under regulatory oversight
