RP Food Safety & Hygiene Consultancy | FSSAI Compliance, Audits & Training

Raama Paranjepe Pai Founder · Certified Food Safety Auditor

Who's behind the audit

A certified auditor, not a checklist vendor.

RP Food Safety & Hygiene Consultancy is led personally by Raama Paranjepe Pai, a Certified Food Safety Auditor and Food Safety Control Officer. Every engagement — from a first FSSAI license application to a full third-party audit — is scoped, conducted and signed off directly, so clients work with one accountable expert rather than a rotating team.

The consultancy's approach mirrors how regulators actually inspect: structured against FSSAI's Schedule 4 requirements, covering personal hygiene, premises, storage, cross-contamination, pest control, documentation and training — with findings, corrective actions and re-verification tracked to closure, not left as a one-time PDF.

What we cover

Compliance services every food business needs on file

Under the FSS Act 2006 and FSSAI's licensing conditions, food businesses in India must maintain a valid license, a trained Food Safety Supervisor, documented hygiene practices, and periodic verification. These are the services that keep a food business audit-ready year-round.

End-to-end support for Basic, State or Central FSSAI license applications, category selection and documentation.

Statutory Requirement

Food Safety Supervisor Training (FoSTaC)

Certified hygiene and food safety training for at least one supervisor per premises, as mandated by FSSAI.

Statutory Requirement

Internal & Third-Party Food Safety Audits

Scheduled inspections benchmarked against FSSAI Schedule 4, with photographic evidence and a scored report.

Readiness support for State Hygiene Rating schemes and display-board compliance ahead of official assessment.

Food Safety Management System design, hazard analysis and documentation for businesses pursuing certification.

Timely FSSAI annual/half-yearly return filing and license renewal, so cover never lapses.

Statutory Requirement

How an engagement runs

From first call to closed findings

A predictable process, whether it's a first-time license application or a recurring quarterly audit.

Scope the visit

A short call to understand the facility, license status and what's being prepared for.

On-site audit

Inspection against the FSSAI-aligned checklist, with observations and photo evidence recorded live.

Report & corrective actions

A scored report with findings, severity and due dates for every non-conformance identified.

Verify & close

Corrective evidence is reviewed and each finding is signed off, so nothing stays open indefinitely.

Compliance your kitchen can stand behind.

A certified auditor, not a checklist vendor.
