Hello all,
We are a cheese manufacturing facility and would like to know if the temperature (4C) needs to be maintained for the shipping and receiving area as per BRCGS or CFIA.
Please share any link where i can keep it as a reference.

As per CFIA, yes you do and no you don't
NOTE: the SFCR does not prescribe temperatures for storage HOWEVER 4C is the scientifically most valid temperature Could you use 5C? Probably, but you would need to be able to justify your cooler temperature
I would also caution you-------if you keep your area warmer than 4 there are a couple of risks
A) it is that much harder to recover when you've had an HVAC issue
B) you may have customer requirements that will only accept product at or below 4C and may be rejected at receiving
C) you WILL lose some shelf for every degree above 4C so you will want to think about repeating your shelf life study
