AIB Stands for The American Institute
of Baking. The AIB is a certification agency for the food industry.
This certification process is a very detailed comprehensive inspection
in food safety. The criterion for this inspection is a combination of
Good Management Principles, The Federal Food and Drug Cosmetic Act,
Good Manufacturing Practices, U.S. Military Standards and the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act.
AIB was used for the baking industry
because of the difficulty of food safety and sanitation. The standards
for certification have been applied to all areas of the food industry
because it is so comprehensive.
