dc.description.abstractMalaysia's economy, like that of many other developing countries is heavily dependent on the export of a variety of commodities among the most important being processed food products. This study was undertaken to study the impact of HACCP implementation on local food industries by analyzing the correlation between HACCP implementation and a company's financial performance in terms of overall gross profit, operations cost, and food microbial quality. The impact of HACCP was also analysed regarding Small and Medium Industries compared with Large Industries, locally-owned enterprises versus mUltinationals and food industries in West Malaysia versus East Malaysia. The study was conducted in three phases; a questionnaire developed for preliminary information gathering, secondary data gathering at the Food Quality Control Division of the Ministry of Health and primary data was then obtained by accompanying auditors from the Ministry of Health during surveillance audits to 15 food processing factories. HACCP implementation was found to have a positive impact on company gross profit, operations costs and was effective in reducing average microbiological count at various food contact surfaces on the production floor. SMls were found to have some problems in implementing HACCP compared to larger multinational or joint-venture companies but overall, they are performing relatively well.en_US
