SQF Certification

Conscientious consumers want food that is safe and has been grown and processed in a manner that meets their high standards of social and environmental responsibility. To demonstrate their commitment to these rigorous expectations, retailers, brand owners, and food service providers look for producers and manufacturers to be certified in the Safe Quality Food (SQF) program. Recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), the SQF family of food safety and quality codes are designed to help all sectors of the food supply chain ensure food safety and brand protection.
