To minimize and control hazards, a number of standards setting targets or methods to follow or even both, have emerged. Audit is among one of the most widely used tools to ensure compliance or not of a company with standards requirements. In this study, we analyzed findings from 35 second part audits carried out in 32 companies of Moroccan food industry. The total duration is 49.5 days. These companies are spread over 9 of food chain categories and 8 different cities (59% of them are located in Casablanca city) with a coaching rate is of 9% in average. Findings raised from these audits are of 147 shared between 10 major non conformities, 50 minor non conformities, 78 remarks and 9 strength points. Chapter 7 has registered 60% of all findings followed with Chapter 5 with 18% then Chapter 4 with 13%. We noted that the cumulative findings related to compliance with regulations requirements, product standards and PRP represent 41% of the whole. Many reasons can explain this rates, among which we mention difficulties faced while collecting regulations and product standards, required investments, which are sometimes heavy, necessary to comply with good practice, change resistance, lack of necessary skills, etc.
