GOOD RETAIL PRACTICES

Good Retail Practices (GRPs) are preventive measures that include practices and procedures that effectively control the introduction of pathogens, chemicals and physical objects into food. If GRPs are not implemented, they could contribute to foodborne illness.

FRUITS & VEGETABLES WASHED

Examples violating good retail practices include labels not removed from raw produce prior to washing, raw produce not washed prior to being cut or raw produce served for consumption without being washed.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Produce shall be thoroughly washed in potable water prior to preparation (ยง113992)
