Queen’s sources food ingredients from approved, reputable suppliers whose quality of products are insured through frequent inspections by Sodexo and regulatory agencies.
Our employees are trained in food safety practices and standards to ensure food is kept safe through the flow of food from the time it is received to the preparation on your plate. The process chain of food is carefully monitored through our Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) Program.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) is a program originally designed by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in their space food service operation. Realizing that food poisoning in space could be a huge disaster, NASA created a system that would greatly reduce the risk of contamination to food stored by astronauts.
