    Desarrollo de un manual de Buenas Prácticas de Manufactura para la microempresa Crazy Gummy en la ciudad de Ambato
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Alimentos, 2024-08) Villacis Salazar, Cristian Sebastián; Guanoquiza Rivera, Manuel Israel
    The Good Manufacturing Practices Manual in the food industry is an essential tool that ensures the production of safe and quality food, guaranteeing optimal manufacturing conditions to protect consumers. This project focuses on creating a GMP Manual for the small business Crazy Gummy, specifically for their gummy production line. The goal is to implement this manual in the future to boost productivity and achieve voluntary certification from the National Agency for Sanitary Regulation, Control, and Surveillance (ARCSA). To create the manual, we first conducted an assessment of Crazy Gummy’s current situation using the ARCSA DE 2022 016 AKRG verification guide. Our findings showed that the business complies with 56% of the requirements, does not comply with 23%, and 21% of the parameters are not applicable to their procedures. The overall risk level was classified as medium, indicating the presence of non-critical factors. We then developed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOPs) to address the detected non-conformities. Additionally, we proposed an action plan tailored to the needs of the small business while considering current regulations. Finally, we created a GMP Manual tailored to the needs of Crazy Gummy, as stipulated by ARCSA regulations. Implementing this manual will ensure the safety and quality of their gummies, enhancing the competitiveness of Crazy Gummy in the national market.
