A LIMERICK firm which provides school meals has landed a prestigious

food safety accreditation.

Carambola Kidz, located at Annacotty Business Park, was one of 19 food

facilities and businesses in Ireland given a Food Safety Assurance

Accreditation which highlights a commitment to excellence in food

safety culture.

Headed by Colm O’Brien, CarambolaKidz was founded in 2003.

The excellence in food safety culture scheme is run by the Food Safety

Professionals Association, an organisation working to maintain and

improve standards of food safety advice, training and education

opportunities in the Irish food industry.

Its chair Lorraine Oman said: “Ireland is renowned globally for

top-quality food products, and ensuring that food safety and hygiene

standards are of the highest calibre across all sectors is at the very

heart of what our organisation does.

“Our Food Safety Assurance Accreditation scheme, which is voluntary for

businesses, is an extremely important initiative as it demonstrates

that a business is working consistently to adhere to the highest

possible statutory and regulatory standards.”
