What is the difference between ISO 22000 and GMP?

I would love to hear back on this.  It is my understanding that ISO 22000 is more than just a GMP.  ISO 22000 is an entire certification covering both the Good Manufacturing Practices, HACCP requirments as well as the critical function of Managment and management training.

It is my understanding that it is broader than getting a GMP Certificate.  

I would love to get your feedback and comments on the above.

Thank you.

ISO 22000 is a Food Safety Management System that can be applied to any organization in the food chain, farm to fork. Becoming certified to ISO 22000 allows a company to show their customers that they have a food safety management system in place.

GMP : Good Manufacturing Practice used by pharmaceutical Industry

ISO 22000 is worldwide unified standard

GMP depends on the country you are working in , although the existence of unified ICH guidelines , there is FDA for USA , Eudralex for European Union , WHO GMP ....etc.

GMP'S are regulatory requirement mandated by law, while ISO is a voluntary certification obtained by a company when they determine that certification is beneficial for their operations or marketing strategies.

The ISO 22000 is an audit-able standard which integrates the seven principles of the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system and application steps developed by the CODEX Alimentarius Commission.The ISO 22000 international standard specifies the requirements for a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) that involves interactive communication, system management, prerequisite programs and HACCP principles. It is relevant to all parties in the food chain as food. 

Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is a system for ensuring that food is not adulterated, is safe for human consumption and consistently produced and controlled in accordance to established quality and food safety standards. Moreover, GMP is designed to minimise risks in any food production that cannot be eliminated through testing of the final product. GMP is comprehensive and covers all aspects of production: from materials, to premises, equipment, handling practices, processing, packaging, storage and delivery, even to the training and personal hygiene of staff.The GMP to be implemented depends on which segment of the food chain that the organization operates. Some examples of equivalent terms used are: Good Agricultural Practice (GAP), Good Veterinarian Practice (GVP), Good Hygienic Practice (GHP), Good Production Practice (GPP), Good Distribution Practice (GDP) and Good Trading Practice (GTP).GMP is an absolute essential as it provides the foundation for the development and implementation of successful Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS) as well as an assurance of food safety. The upshot is, GMP is a prerequisite for all who are committed to food safety and FSMS standards such as Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) and ISO 22000.

Good manufacturing practice (GMP) is that part of quality assurance which ensures that products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to their intended use and as required by the marketing authorization.

On the other hand, ISO22000 is a safety managment system appllicable to the food chain and help the certified company to show to its customers that safety management system in place in the certified company. 

GMP guidelines are related to pharmaceuticalsGood manufacturing practice (GMP) is that part of quality assurance which ensures that products are consistently produced and controlled to the quality standards appropriate to their intended use and as required by the marketing authorization. GMP is aimed primarily at diminishing the risks inherent in any pharmaceutical production, which may broadly be categorized in two groups: cross contamination/mix-ups and false labelling. Above all, manufacturers must not place patients at risk due to inadequate safety, quality or efficacy; for this reason, risk assessment has come to play an important role in WHO quality assurance guidelines.
