This can be attributed to its simplicity and government recognition. FSSC 22000 ranks second with 31% adoption, as it requires a higher commitment to food defense. BRC, with 28% adoption, is the least prevalent due to its stringent requirements. it becomes evident that Algeria occupies the tenth position.
