Yıldız Holding says global food safety standards guide its operations in 11 countries

Yıldız Holding views food safety as a strategic responsibility extending beyond quality control to supply chains and consumer concerns, and manages its global operations in 11 countries through common standards, a senior company executive said Thursday.

Speaking to Anadolu, Rohaizad Bin Hassan, Yıldız’s food safety and defense general manager, said the company’s approach covers food defense, supply chain integrity, and consumer sensitivities in addition to regulatory compliance and quality control.

“This approach is rooted in the principle of the late Sabri Ulker, the founder of Ulker: ‘I do not produce any product that I would not eat myself or feed to my children’,” said Hassan. He added that the principle remains one of the key references for Yıldız Holding’s global food safety vision.

Hassan said the company’s Food Safety Board supports that vision through a governance structure covering global operations.

“In this framework, we contribute to managing food safety through common principles across 33 food and food-related production facilities in 11 countries among Yıldız Holding’s 45 factories worldwide,” he stressed.
