Contact Us TodayHouston combines the largest port complex on the Gulf with a massive food manufacturing and distribution base, so audits here regularly span both plant food safety and import supply-chain compliance — FSVP records for imported ingredients sit right beside HACCP and GMP documentation on the audit table. Add Texas DSHS licensing for state-regulated operations and the audit surface gets wide fast.
That you (or your designated importer of record) hold hazard analyses for each imported food, documented supplier evaluations and approval, verification activities matched to the hazard (audits, testing, or record review), and reevaluation every three years or on new information. Port-adjacent distributors fail most often on the 'matched to the hazard' part.
Often both: FDA for facilities in interstate commerce plus Texas DSHS licensing and inspection for manufacturers, warehouses, and wholesalers operating in-state. Our audits use a combined checklist so one walk-through covers both inspectors' expectations.
