Local Canadian Food Safety Consultants for Fast, Audit-Ready Certification.
From Toronto and the GTA to Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal, and beyond, buyers and regulators expect audit-ready food safety programs. FoodReady’s Canada Food Safety Consultants deliver hands-on Food Safety Consulting that aligns with CFIA, Health Canada, and Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR). We build or refresh HACCP and Preventive Control Plans (PCP), tighten GMP/PRPs, organize documentation, and run mock audits so certification day is predictable and calm. We help companies get certified; we do not provide training—our focus is practical, done-with-you implementation that meets the standard without disrupting production.
Engage with an expedient process that is more than traditional consulting. Supported by a unique combination of veteran food safety experts and software intelligence, we get your Food Safety / HACCP programs ready to stay ready for any GFSI, BRC, SQF, or Retail Audit, in addition to State, USDA, or FDA inspections.
Every project is led by Dave Seddon, FoodReady’s Chief Food Safety Officer. With more than 500 completed audits and recognition as an SQF Auditor of the Year finalist, Dave brings an auditor’s insight to every engagement. He understands what certifiers and regulators look for and helps Iowa food companies align their documentation, hazard analysis, and records with those expectations. Under his direction, our Food Safety Consultants in Iowa build systems that are not only compliant but also practical for your staff to run every day.

The steps we take to help Canadian clients pass certification and meet SFCR expectations:
Gap Assessment
We tour your facility (or meet virtually) to map product/personnel flows, zoning, and controls. We review existing documentation and records to identify gaps against SFCR/PCP, HACCP, GMP, or GFSI-aligned standards. You receive a prioritized action plan with critical-path tasks to hit your audit or inspection date.
HACCP and Document Development
We build or refresh your HACCP and PCP: hazard analysis, CCPs/critical limits, monitoring, verification, validation evidence, and supporting SOPs/PRPs. We set up practical forms/logs, version control, and retention so operators can run the system consistently and produce audit-ready records.
Verification, Pre-Audit and Coaching
For applicable (RTE/high-risk) areas, we design an environmental monitoring program—zone mapping, swab frequencies, Listeria/Salmonella strategies, trending, and corrective actions. We ensure data are trended and available so evidence is ready when auditors or inspectors ask.
We will deliver the best job with the best team.
Yes. We provide on-site Food Safety Consulting in Canada across major metros and regional hubs, with hybrid remote sessions between visits to maintain momentum and minimize disruption.
We prepare facilities for HACCP, PCP/SFCR, GMP, and GFSI-aligned schemes (e.g., SQF, FSSC 22000), plus CFIA inspection readiness, traceability/recall, and supporting documentation. We focus on consulting and implementation to get you audit-ready; we do not provide certification training.
After the gap assessment, we create a realistic schedule that prioritizes high-impact fixes first—hazard analysis, CCPs, supplier approval, sanitation/allergen documentation—so you can meet your target date.
Absolutely. We analyze nonconformances, address root causes, rebuild weak areas, and run a focused mock audit. We also help craft effective CAPAs and assemble proof of effectiveness to close findings quickly.
Most clients reach audit readiness within 45–90 days after a gap assessment, depending on system maturity and certification type.
Yes—on-site or remote. We organize the document room, manage evidence requests, coach staff on responses, and keep the process moving from opening to closing meeting.
