GFSI Releases New Edition of Benchmarking Requirements
The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) has announced the publication of its highly-anticipated 7th version of the industry-acclaimed GFSI Benchmarking Requirements, previously known as the GFSI Guidance Document.
Once successfully benchmarked, food safety schemes (certification programmes) are “recognised” by GFSI which lends a nameplate authority to any operation obtaining certification from one these schemes. Most importantly, GFSI-recognised schemes operate as a kind of food safety passport by creating a common understanding and mutual trust in the supply chain.
