Overview
With over 33,000 clients in the food, beverage, retail and hospitality sectors, Lloyd’s Register (LR) works across the globe to provide BRCGS Food Safety audits to a huge range of customers.
First published in 1998, this standard helps food manufacturers focus on a wide range of areas including HACCP, traceability, food fraud prevention, management commitment and quality management systems. The BRC Global Standard for Food Safety is recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) meaning successful certification helps your business retain, or unlock, access to key markets.
The 8th issue of the standard was launched in February 2019 and LR can help to ensure you meet the new audit criteria.
