Gorry Gourmet: Quality Control and Nutrition PT. GORRY GOURMET, INDONESIA

Abstract

Gorry Gourmet is a catering company based in Kembangan, Jakarta; specifically focused on producing healthy foods which are conveniently delivered to consumers. Gorry Gourmet offers a wide selection of 12 packages, with each catered towards a specific need (Weight loss, Ketogenic diet, etc.). Each package on its own offers up to three different menus per day which are all calorie counted, along with other nutrients specific to each package’s needs. One of the packages is the Intermediate package which is even more customized to the specific customer’s needs; available through notes submitted through the website or mobile application. The intern is placed within the Quality Control and Nutrition departments, while also aiding in the Storage division. The QC and Storage departments hold the intern responsible for HACCP forms which document sensory analysis, sampling, and stock opname. The intern is responsible for aiding the lead nutritionist with creating intermediate menus and calculating calories for the nutrition labels. Findings from the internship project discovered that Gorry Gourmet follows its HACCP based protocols well. Even still, physical hazards in leafy greens such as insects and debris are still a major concern and a bottleneck of the production line. Improvements can be made in the form of QC monitoring of raw materials processing, specifically for vegetables. The internship placement has also helped the author grow in terms of soft- and hard skills, along with gaining the chance to apply his studies in i3L in a real working environment.
