Frequently Asked Questions
What food safety certifications create key person dependency?
SQF Practitioner certifications, HACCP team leader credentials, and PCQI (Preventive Controls Qualified Individual) designations create key person dependency. Losing these credentialed individuals can disrupt customer audits and FDA compliance status.
How do food processing companies approach family succession?
Family-owned processors should use life insurance to fund buy-sell agreements or equalization strategies, ensuring the business continues without forced sale while providing fair value to non-participating family members.
