Really fantastic, warm team! I had the pleasure of working with Chris, Michael, Afina, and Kerri, and they were all great to work with. We used QA at Sal's Pizza to provide Introduction to HACCP training, Gap Auditing, and HACCP Certification Auditing for our in-house program. The feedback was comprehensive, as the team has a wealth of food industry and manufacturing knowledge and experience, and it was good to know I had someone to contact for any compliance questions when I was writing up our HACCP program.

On behalf of one of my relatives food manufacturing business, I recently engaged Quality Associates for HACCP training and onsite services, and I can confidently give them a 5-star review! Their services, led by Dr. Andreas and Michael Klieber, were incredibly thorough, practical, and tailored to our needs,. The onsite support was exceptional, with their senior food safety manager providing hands-on guidance to strengthen the quality systems. Their expertise and flexible delivery made the experience seamless and highly valuable. Highly recommend for any food business seeking top-tier training and compliance support!

We recently engaged Quality Associates to deliver on-site HACCP training for our team, and the experience was excellent. Raymond, the Sydney-based trainer, was highly engaging and brought practical insights that resonated well with the group. All participants completed the course feeling confident and satisfied with the outcome. Highly recommended.

Our shop Moonfishh time for the renew our certificate, from the booking to issue the new certificate was quick and smooth . Everything you through email to boo for the the you need to audit and they let you choose what day and time is suite our business, once you lock in the day and time the auditor will email you to touch base and the day before Will confirm with you again. On the arrival day they will go through what we need and what they need to look for. Something we thing is different their professional knowledge and the guide line, but they are very kind and guide you back on track so don’t be worry. Once audit done, you may need to provide back the evidence to close off the case and they will be issue your certificate. For my experience it is awesome and got a lot update for the information .

Quality Associates were so helpful in producing amazing new labels and food standards for my cake business Yummelia. They talked me through the process at the same time which, as a small business I really appreciated. They also took the time to understand my businesses unique needs and the friendly team didn't hesitate to answer any 'silly' questions I had along the way. A pleasure to deal with and I would recommend any business, big or small, engage with QA to build your business and learn some interesting things along the way.
