ProFood-safety procedures in New Zealand
Confirm whether the business uses a template or custom food control plan, or a national programme. The app's NZ starter content does not register the business with MPI or the council. Create MPI-based procedure drafts for your New Zealand site, review the methods against your registered plan and publish the version your staff will use. Pro records acknowledgement against that version.
ProCafe Pro: NZ$99/month + NZ$49 per extra location, including all Core features. The free trial includes Pro features where Pro is available; a paid Pro plan is required afterwards.

Putting this into practice in New Zealand
Build your routines around the food control plan or national programme that applies to your New Zealand business. For cafes using MPI's Simply Safe & Suitable template, the selected cards and your registered activities determine the work. Keep the completed checks and supporting methods ready for your verifier.
MPI: using a Simply Safe & Suitable food control plan- For Simply Safe & Suitable, review the selected cards against the menu and service activities. Add the site's people, equipment, suppliers and actual safe methods.
- Prepare records and supporting methods for verification, including actions from previous visits. Revisit the plan when activities change rather than assuming registration covers every new process.
What it does
- Drafts from your profile
- Generate New Zealand starters for hygiene, staff illness, cleaning, cross-contamination, temperature control and deliveries. Review and adapt each method to your premises and registered plan.
- Publish immutable versions
- When a procedure is right, publish it. Published versions never change silently — an edit becomes the next version, and the record of what was in force stays intact.
- Owner-reviewed task suggestions
- A published procedure can suggest scheduled tasks. Nothing is created automatically: you review the suggestions and pick which to create, duplicates are skipped, and some procedures suggest none.
- Staff sign-off, on the record
- Assign a published procedure and capture each person's sign-off against that exact version — an internal record of who read what, and when.
- Procedures for your location
- Pro includes source-linked procedure starters for supported markets, with separate Scottish and Northern Irish methods. Review the activities and local requirements for each site before publishing a version and requesting staff acknowledgement.

Procedures you can stand behind
