Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) refers to advice and guidanceput in place to outline the aspects of production and testing thatcan impact the quality and safety of a product. In the case of foodand drink, GMP is aimed at ensuring that products are safe for theconsumer and are consistently manufactured to a quality appropriateto their intended use. Manufacturers have for several years beendriving towards such goals as Total Quality Management (TQM), leanmanufacturing and sustainability - GMP is bound up with theseissues. The ever-increasing interest amongst consumers, retailersand enforcement authorities in the conditions and practices in foodmanufacture and distribution, increases the need for the foodmanufacturer to operate within clearly defined policies such asthose laid down in GMP. The ability to demonstrate that GoodManufacturing Practice has been fully and effectively implementedcould, in the event of a consumer complaint or a legal action,reduce the manufacturer's liability and protect them fromprosecution. First launched in 1986, IFST's Good Manufacturing PracticeGuide has been widely recognized as an indispensable reference workfor food scientists and technologists. It sets out to ensure thatfood manufacturing processes deliver products that are uniform inquality, free from defects and contamination, and as safe as it ishumanly possible to make them. This 6th edition has beencompletely revised and updated to include all the latest standardsand guidance, especially with regard to legislation-driven areassuch as HACCP.

Food scientists in academic and industry environmentswill value its precision, and policy makers and regulatoryorganizations will find it an indispensable guide to an importantand multifaceted area.
