Udine Region and Confcommercio Sign Food‑Safety Protocol to Harmonise HACCP Rules

The Friuli‑Venezia Giulia regional authority and Confcommercio Udine sealed an agreement on 30 July 2026 to standardise food‑safety and HACCP procedures across the region. The protocol creates ten technical tables that will involve about 50 local enterprises from sectors such as meat, dairy, catering, large‑scale distribution and vegetables. It aims to align regional inspections with European Regulation 625/2017 and provide clearer guidance for operators.

The signing ceremony was attended by Regional Health Assessor Riccardo Riccardi, Confcommercio Udine vice‑president Antonio Dalla Mora, project coordinator Cristian Vida and representatives of Confindustria Alto Adriatico and the University of Udine. The joint effort seeks to reduce interpretative differences in hygiene rules, improve consumer safety and support the export of regional products such as San Daniele ham.
