Ensure: Food
Digital HACCP for Restaurants — Done daily. Audit-ready anytime.
Replace the paper HACCP folder with a simple daily workflow, automatic corrective actions, and a one-click audit pack when you need it.
Your HACCP system should do 3 things:
1. Make the daily checks easy (so teams actually complete them)
2. Force action when something fails (not just record it)
3. Prove compliance instantly (when an inspector calls)
That’s what Fit2Trade’s system gives you.

Daily HACCP Log (per shift) — fast sections for temps, cook/reheat/cool, hygiene controls
Goods-In / Delivery checks (per delivery) — quick accept/reject + evidence
Automatic corrective actions when a control fails (with owners, due times and proof)
Real compliance, not just ticking boxes
CCV escalation for critical failures (high priority actions by default)
Photo evidence and comments on the spot
A simple dashboard: completion, fails, open actions, time-to-close
