The Food Contract Manufacturing Agreement is essential for businesses looking to outsource their food product manufacturing in Malaysia. This document is typically used when a food brand owner or company wants to engage a third-party manufacturer to produce their food products while maintaining quality standards and regulatory compliance. The agreement must align with Malaysian food safety regulations, including the Food Act 1983 and Food Regulations 1985, and may need to address halal certification requirements. It covers critical aspects such as manufacturing specifications, quality control procedures, raw material handling, pricing, intellectual property protection, and risk allocation. This type of agreement is particularly important in Malaysia's growing food manufacturing sector, where maintaining consistent quality and regulatory compliance is paramount.
