ANVISA Food Safety Protocols

The Brazilian food and beverage industry is regulated by the National Health Surveillance Agency (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária – ANVISA), which establishes and monitors food safety regulations and quality standards.

Graded’s Dining Services team follows all ANVISA protocols to ensure food safety at every stage of the process, including supplier selection, purchasing and receiving, transportation, storage, preparation, and service. All team members adhere to strict hygiene standards, participate in ongoing food safety training, and complete periodic health examinations.

Food safety practices required by ANVISA include:

• Maintaining a clean and sanitized kitchen environment
• Separating raw and cooked foods to prevent cross-contamination
• Cooking foods to safe internal temperatures
• Storing food at appropriate temperatures to ensure quality and safety

During lunch service, meals are served at a buffet station equipped with acrylic protective shields to help prevent contamination and maintain food safety.
