Hi,

 

We are planning on storing some of our ingredients in a warehouse outside our facility. It is not our warehouse, we will be using a warehouse company for this purpose. Now, would this warehouse company be called a subcontractor as per BRC? I was looking at 3.5.4.2 clause and just not sure if this will fall into that clause or not. Could someone please give me your thoughts from your past experience?

 

Appreciate your input.

I'm coming from SQF - we have a similar situation and call it a contract service provider.  We risk-assess the service and come up with requirements for them, including a food safety audit from us or an accredited third party.
