FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India)

. An FSSAI certificate (or license) is a mandatory document issued by the government ensuring that a food business strictly complies with national safety, hygiene, and quality regulations.

• Legal Compliance: In India, it is illegal to run any food-related business (including cloud kitchens, catering, manufacturing, or retail) without an FSSAI registration or license.

• Consumer Trust: It acts as a mark of food quality, assuring customers that your food is safe for consumption.

• Business Growth: A valid license is often required to scale your business, partner with e-commerce platforms (like Swiggy or Zomato), and secure business loans.
