Conformance with food safety standards throughout the supply chain is now a fact of doing business. Certification standards targeting farms, facilities, and retailers – SQF, GLOBALG.A.P, BRC, ISO 22000, FSC 22000, Harmonized Good Agricultural Practice (GAP), and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) – all provide guidance to help companies and customers steer clear of food safety crises. Dig deeper, however, and you’ll discover one key factor often overlooked– namely, auditor competence.
