Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI)

Respected by retailers and buyers around the world and powered by the Consumer Goods Forum (CGF), GFSI is a global industry network that brings the food industry together to collaboratively drive continuous improvement, harmonise food safety standards across the global supply chain and provide safe food for consumers around the world.

The GFSI Benchmarking process is widely recognised in the food industry worldwide and includes the following GFSI compliant food safety schemes:

• BRCGS
• FSSC 22000 Food Safety
• IFS
• GlobalG.A.P
• GAA BAP

Confidence in your food safety

With more and more companies seeking GFSI-certified suppliers, it has never been so important to be part of a globally recognised scheme. It allows your customers and your supply chain to have trust in your brand and demonstrates your commitment to continuous improvement.

Competitive advantage

Many of today’s leading companies expect their suppliers to hold GFSI-recognised certificates. Having GFSI certified schemes will set you apart from uncertified competitors and help grow your business.

Passport to a global market

When you become certified to a GSFI Scheme, you become a respected part of a vast global community that shares knowledge and best practice to collectively improve food safety.

Efficiency gains

By achieving certification, you will drive continuous improvement across your organisation and reduce failure. This will not only improve cost efficiency throughout the food supply chain, but more importantly, it will positively impact on your bottom line.

With so many food safety and assurance schemes in place, it can be challenging to determine which works best for your business.

We can work with you to benchmark your processes and determine your most practical route to compliance and certification to one or more of the GFSI-accepted standards, depending on your requirements.
