Abstract

One weak link in food networks can jeopardise human health by breaching food safety management. Needless to say, food manufacturers must develop a plan for improving operations management to provide safer goods. Hence, identifying any inherent constraints in food safety management implementation could result in improved procedures, higher efficiency, and monetary gains for exporting nations in emerging economies. This research applied the theory of constraints to identify constraints that could limit fish and fishery manufacturers' food safety management system (FSMS) performance in global trading. Moreover, physical, behavioural, management policy, supply chain relationships, and standards constraints are recognised. Specifically, the significance of intangible FSMS aspects in searching for improvements to ensure performance and profitability is emphasised so stakeholders can immediately identify and eliminate the constraint(s) to ensure enterprises' FSMS can continue to satisfy changing market demand and legislative regulations.
