FSSAI Central License in Punjab

An FSSAI Central License in Punjab is the apex statutory food safety authorization issued under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 by the Central Licensing Authority (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India).

  • Mandatory for Large Food Businesses with Annual Turnover Exceeding ₹50 Crore

  • Requires Adherence to Schedule 4 GMP/GHP Hygiene Standards & FSMS System

What is an FSSAI Central License in Punjab?

Punjab is an agricultural and food processing powerhouse—home to world-class grain processing plants, dairy processing hubs, beverage factories, and food export units across Ludhiana, Amritsar, Jalandhar, Khanna, and Mohali. Under food safety regulations, food businesses operating at a large scale or engaging in specialized activities are classified under FSSAI Central Licensing.

Under the FSSAI turnover framework, food processing plants with an annual turnover exceeding ₹50 Crore must obtain a Central License. Additionally, certain categories—such as food importers, merchant exporters, 100% EOUs, health supplement / nutraceutical producers, proprietary food makers, and e-commerce platforms—are legally mandated to hold a Central License irrespective of turnover.

Shree Meeracorp assists food processing plants, exporters, importers, and brand owners across Ludhiana, Amritsar, Jalandhar, Patiala, Mohali, Bathinda, and all Punjab districts with FoSCoS portal application submission, water test compilation, Schedule 4 hygiene setup, and obtaining official FSSAI Central Licenses.
