Hello everybody,

Here again from Spain, so sorry for my english!

I got the BRC/EFSIS standard in paper and my question is ¿ is that the same as the BRC standard ?

If I want to implement the BRC standard in a slauterhouse + cutting plant + packaging of fresh meat plant , what standard should I follow, BRC - food, BRC- packaging or both ?

And for a cheese manufacturer , BRC -food or BRC-packaging ?

If you allow me the following question in this forum, it is about ISO 9001, section 7.3. I guess that slauterhouses, cutting plants and packaging of fresh meat plant are exempt form implementing it, are not they ?

Thank you in advanced for your good answers, I know they are.

Hi Esther,
the answer is BRC food.
I suppose the slaughterhouse isn't a packaging producer, am I right ?

It depends on what they're actually producing. For instance if they slaughter, cut and pack three different meats (pork, beef and chicken) in a finished product (sausage or any other food) with many other flavours and ingredients it is likely that the auditor will ask for 7.3.

Your English is OK, I'm italian and Saferpakers are very kind people, they haven't thrown me out of the window yet

Hello Franco

Thank you for your answer.

The company I am talking about has three sections:
slauterhouse
cutting plant
packaging plant in which the fresh meat is packaged in modified atmosfere. So in this case it should not be neccesary to implement point 7.3 of ISO 9001, should it ?

Dear Esther,

I really can't tell you more in a Web Forum. You may try to look at ISO 9000:2000 guideline application
