Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara, the luxury brand’s first resort in Qatar, has been awarded the prestigious Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point System (HACCP) certification for operating in line with the top health and hygiene regulation for hospitality services.

HACCP is a recommended control system for the hygiene of food products. It is a preventive food safety management system that monitors every step in the manufacture, storage and distribution of a food product, and is analysed for microbiological, physical and chemical hazards. The certification is highly regarded within the hotel and food industry and is recognised by SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and Certification Company.

The certificate was presented to Thomas Fehlbier, general Manager of Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara in the presence of FSMS Committee team (Food Safety Management System committee).

Before setting out to achieve HACCP certification, the resort has set its own benchmark in the hospitality industry with the implementation of the resort’s food safety and management system that provides consistent quality service. In order to receive the HACCP certification, Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara has been constantly strict on food safety management.

Fehlbier said: “We are delighted to be awarded with this international certificate that recognises our efforts to become the number one resort in Qatar and the region, committed to excellence and customer satisfaction. Food safety and hygiene is of paramount importance to us and we have continuously strived to deliver as per our guest’s expectations and more. Our F&B department worked incredibly hard to ensure everyone was familiar with their duties regarding HACCP, both in its adoption and implementation. With the new certification, our guests can further enjoy their stay at the resort with the confidence that we are providing the very best-in-class services that positions us at the top of our game.” – TradeArabia News Service
