Our Commitment & History

VII Principles (VIIP) is committed to providing our partners with a holistic approach to food safety. By developing a relationship with the local regulatory agency, VIIP will continuously and competently represent our partners’ best interests. VIIP possesses the local ‘know how’ and food safety expertise to facilitate the vision of our partnerships. From concept to operation, we are determined to heighten the food safety awareness of all staff members through our proactive methodologies. Consider us an integral part of your team.

Our staff is Food and Drug Administration (FDA) trained to evaluate our partners’ establishment using the most up-to-date and strenuous food safety regulations. In fact, most, if not all states and localities are presently adopting different versions of the FDA Food Code Model. VIIP has fully adopted the code by integrating evaluations in accordance with local nuances. This differentiates us from our competitors; we remain connected to your food safety, sanitation, and security needs.

Our team has more than 25+ years in the Food Safety Consulting field and are fully prepared to aid with any food safety questions or concerns you may have.
