HRAWI Conducts FSSAI’s FoSTaC Programmes In Maharashtra

Mumbai, December 30, 2019: Earlier this month, the Hotel and Restaurant Association of Western India (HRAWI) in association with the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) conducted a Food Safety Supervisory training in Advance Catering (FoSTaC) programme at the Hotel Jakson Inn located at Phaltan town of Satara district in Maharashtra. Through the programme, 36 hospitality professionals in the region were trained and certified under the supervision of Trainer Mr. Pravin Andrews.

“When a food handler working in a hotel or restaurant establishment completes this program, they acquire awareness, knowledge and skills pertaining to the food safety standards. While there is much impetus given on food safety across all reputed establishments, understanding standards is equally important. This programme is aimed at imparting knowledge on this important aspect and will benefit the establishment in the long run,” says Mr. Gurbaxish Singh Kohli, President, HRAWI.

Last month, HRAWI had conducted the FoSTaC training programmes in Aurangabad and Nasik through which a total of 57 hospitality personnel were trained and certified. Over the last couple of years, the Association has successfully trained and certified 1563 hospitality professionals across India’s Western region.
