Boerewors or braaiwors? Chances are, you’ve bought both without giving the name on the pack much thought.

They fall into different product categories, which means they’re made according to different standards and requirements.

Boerewors has a higher required meat content and stricter ingredient rules, while braaiwors allows for a broader mix of ingredients. They might look similar, but they’re not quite the same.

A Certificate of Good Standing gives producers a clear way to show that their facility is meeting FSA requirements. 📄

For producers of processed meat, raw processed meat, poultry or eggs, the process starts with an FSA inspection to confirm compliance. Once the requirements are met, the certificate helps demonstrate credibility and gives customers and other stakeholders added confidence in the facility.

A little update from the field! 🥩🔍

FSA is excited to have recently commenced Independent Meat Inspection (IMI) services at an abattoir in Beaufort West - another step in expanding our IMI footprint and supporting food safety across South Africa.

Our independent meat inspectors play an essential role in the meat production process, helping to verify hygiene, regulatory compliance and meat safety while carrying out their responsibilities independently and professionally.

We’re proud to welcome this facility to our growing IMI footprint and even prouder of the team on the ground representing FSA and carrying out this important work every day. 👏

New region. Growing footprint. Same commitment to food safety. 🇿🇦🥩

There’s more to food safety than what happens during an inspection, and our APS Workshop gave us a chance to look at some of the other services that support the industry behind the scenes. 🔬

For Omphile Mokgothu, the Food Safety Laboratory stood out, especially the role microbiological testing plays in checking products, water and other samples for compliance. She also highlighted our Training and Certification, Auditing and Compliance, and Veterinary Services as part of the wider support FSA offers.
