Sanitary registration is essential in logistics, especially for the shipment of products such as food, beverages, medicines or vaccines. This documentation ensures the integrity of the goods throughout the logistics process.

In Spain, two of the most important bodies in this area are the General Health Register for Food and Food Companies (RGSEAA), which reports to the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition, and the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (AEMPS). Both establish essential standards to ensure that products arrive in optimal conditions at points of sale and warehouses. But how does each of them work?

RGSEAA: Guaranteeing food safety

The RGSEAA plays an essential role in the regulation of companies in the food sector. This register guarantees that all companies that produce, transform, store and distribute food comply with the food safety standards established by European and Spanish legislation. Compliance with these regulations not only protects the health of consumers, but also allows companies to operate legally in the marketplace. Obtaining RGSEAA registration implies passing rigorous quality and health controls, being a seal of confidence and transparency.

AEMPS: Ensuring the quality of medicines and healthcare products

The AEMPS regulates medicines and healthcare products, ensuring that they meet safety and efficacy standards before they are marketed. AEMPS regulations are especially important in the logistics for pharmaceutical products.

Advantages of sanitary registration for companies

1. Product traceability: Allows detailed tracking from the point of origin to the final destination. This is crucial in the event that a defective or contaminated product needs to be recalled, facilitating a rapid and effective response in favor of public health.
2. Improved consumer confidence: A product that complies with health regulations conveys safety and reliability, strengthening the relationship with consumers.
3. Access to international markets: Many export regulations require that products have a sanitary registration and comply with the standards of the destination countries. This documentation is required to clear customs.
4. Avoid penalties and fines: Complying with the RGSEAA and AEMPS regulations helps companies avoid sanctions for non-compliance with health standards.
5. Protection of public health: Registration ensures that food and pharmaceutical products meet the highest standards of quality and safety, protecting people from potential risks.

Added value for the pharmaceutical industry and the food sector

In addition to these advantages, health registration strengthens corporate reputation, which is essential for corporate social responsibility reporting. For any company involved in the transportation, storage and distribution of pharmaceuticals or food products, this documentation is essential, although it is not always easy to obtain and apply.
