Dear Simon:

 

We are on our way to FSSC 22000 certification and hope to be certified by the end of this year.

Hi Simon,

 

GFSI Approved Standard is maybe nearer the actuality. Benchmarked is even nearer in their own terminology maybe. Or since I haven't checked lately, perhaps GFSI are getting into the promotion act as well ?

Kind Regards,

FSSC 22000 and in my previous role we were SQF L3.  Is it scary that the more you work with food safety standards the more they make sense?

 

Good luck Yong! With all of the information and heads on IFSQN you should do fine :)

While I have worked on and under many SQF systems, my current company thinks GFSI systems are a socialist plot.    Not kidding.   Thank God Tylenol is available in large quantities as well as hair coloring.

Hi All,

 We  are a packaging company and have had BRC " High Hygiene Risk" for Packaging for several years in its various forms. We have just opened a new site (May 2013) and achieved the certification there last month too. 

Regards

Sharon

LOL I know all about Hair Dye & Valium! I've been doing BRC since it began; before that EFSIS

 

I've just had my hand forced by a retailer to do the unannounced BRC!

 

I also do Soil Association & Red Tractor

 

In fact I've become quite blasé about audits; they've become virtual a tick list for me.
