Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) for Food

MS 1514 is the Malaysian Standard for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in the food industry. It establishes the basic requirements and practices for ensuring that food products are consistently manufactured, handled, stored and distributed under hygienic and controlled conditions. It covers essential aspects such as premises, equipment, personnel hygiene, sanitation, pest control, storage and operational controls to ensure food safety and product quality.

Certification to MS 1514 by an accredited certification body, such as TUV NORD (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd., demonstrates an organisation's commitment to good manufacturing practices and food safety. It enhances customer confidence, strengthens operational controls and supports compliance with applicable food safety requirements. It may also support organisations in pursuing the Ministry of Health (MOH) Malaysia GMP Certification Scheme, subject to the Ministry's prevailing requirements.
