Quality and food safety
30+ years of making cooked food safe to freeze and serve.
Our products go straight into your recipe with no cooking step on your side. So we build food safety into every stage, from the field to the freezer, and test it in our own lab.

Our process
Six controlled steps from field to freezer.
STEP 01
Source
Approved growers and packers only. Raw materials are checked on arrival.
STEP 02
Clean and sort
Stones, debris and off-grade pieces are removed before cooking.
STEP 03
Cook
A validated cook step, monitored and recorded.
STEP 04
Quick freeze
Cooked product is chilled and individually quick frozen to lock in texture.
STEP 05
Test
Our in-house lab tests finished product.
STEP 06
Pack and code
Every bag, case and tote is lot coded, so it is traceable back to its raw ingredients.
In-house micro lab
We test it before it leaves.
Ready-to-eat food needs proof, not promises. Our own microbiology lab tests finished product and monitors the plant environment, so results come back quickly.
- Finished-product testing for pathogens and indicator organisms
- Product is held until test results clear
- Environmental monitoring of the plant, including Listeria
- Results verified by accredited third-party labs
- Enhanced sampling plans on request for high-risk applications
Food safety programs
The programs behind every batch.
Allergen program
A documented program with an allergen matrix for every product. Peanuts are not allowed in our facilities.
Environmental monitoring
Routine swabbing of food-contact and non-contact surfaces for pathogens, including Listeria.
Sanitation
Written cleaning procedures for each line, verified before production starts.
Traceability and mock recalls
Lot codes link every pack to its raw materials. Mock recalls are run regularly to test it.
Supplier approval
Raw material suppliers are approved, monitored and reviewed.
Food defense and fraud
Site security and vulnerability assessments, as FSSC 22000 requires.
Experience
Three decades of getting cooked and frozen right.
Seenergy has cooked and frozen beans since 1994, and patented its frozen bean process in 1997. That experience is why our texture holds up through freezing, our batches stay consistent, and our QA team knows what your auditors will ask.
