Abstract

As the most stringent and effective food quality assurance system, the hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) system is widely valued by global food companies. Foreign research shows that the motivation of adopting HACCP in the enterprise will affect its implementation effect of the quality assurance system. Based on the large sample research of HACCP certified or validated food enterprises, in the form of questionnaire survey, this paper uses the factor analysis method to analyze the influence factors of enterprises with different characteristics adopting HACCP. The results here show that the motivation of enterprises adopting HACCP varies with the basic characteristics of the enterprise. "Sales network" has a positive impact on the strategic motivation, the enterprises that have exported products are more inclined to adopt HACCP initiatively; the enterprise scale is larger, the strategic motivation tendency is more obvious; meanwhile, the impact of "sales network" to the followership motivation is also significant.
