Willit

Food safety compliance handled automatically

Willit takes care of self-monitoring plan requirements for you. Focus on producing, we handle food safety.

What is a self-monitoring plan?

Every business selling food products needs a self-monitoring plan (omavalvontasuunnitelma in Finnish). It is a legally required document describing how the business ensures the safety of food products sold.

  • EU Regulation (EC) 852/2004 requires all food business operators to have a self-monitoring plan based on HACCP principles.
  • The Finnish Food Authority (Ruokavirasto) supervises compliance in Finland. The plan must be presented upon request.
  • The self-monitoring plan covers all stages: receiving, storage, sales, and traceability.
  • Only packaged products are sold in unmanned self-service. This simplifies compliance significantly.
  • A food premises notification must be made before starting operations. One notification covers all sales points under the same operation.
