Abstract

This work aimed to design a system of good manufacturing practices in the Marlem dairy products company located in the parish of Quinchicoto, Canton Tisaleo, in the province of Tungurahua. It was developed through documentary type research where firstly, the current situation of the facilities, equipment, utensils, hygienic sanitary conditions of the personnel, and production process of the company were identified, which were supported by current regulations that determined the compliance with GMP. A manual establishing the parameters for a productive activity focused on food safety and a training plan to socialize the content to all the company's workers were presented. As a result, 59% of the 145 aspects evaluated did not meet the standards, so the second objective was developed. The areas of equipment and utensils, personnel, production operations, storage, distribution, transportation and marketing, and quality assurance showed 57.24% non-compliance. It was concluded that the manual's contents should be socialized since it is a helpful tool for all personnel directly or indirectly involved in the process. It is recommended to develop the updating of each of the elements that presented nonconformities in the evaluation carried out in such a way as to guarantee the well-being of the client.
