Wine is considered as a food and must be produced under conditions that will ensure the safety of the
product for human consumption. The HACCP system is the internationally recognized as a food safety tool, and
must be applied during the entire food production process. The implementation of a food safety management
system based on the principles of HACCP in the wineries should minimise the number and extent of exposures
to hazards and improve overall safety of the wine.
In this study, an exploratory multiple case study approach was adopted in order to provide better
understanding of the process of implementation and functioning of the HACCP system in the Macedonian
wineries. Twelve Macedonian wineries (cases) of varying size and annual production participated in the study.
Two methods for collecting empirical data have been applied: survey by applying a questionnaire sent via
e-mail and face-to-face interview.
Using survey data, the key factors affecting the functioning of the HACCP system in the Macedonian wine
industry were analysed. The findings provide evidence that the most common motives for the implementation
of HACCP system in the wineries are: enhanced compliance with regulation, improved communication and
control, and implemented traceability system. Also, the results showed that the main factors that hinder the
implementation and functioning of HACCP system are: excessive documentation, lack of time, and lack of
knowledge relevant to food safety (especially among micro sized wineries).
Key words: food safety management systems, wine
