A widely recognised organisation, BRCGS (previously BRC) has been protecting the global supply chain since 1996. Initially set up to reduce audit duplication by UK retailers, BRCGS now operates the most rigorous third-party certification scheme of its kind.
Setting the benchmark for best-practice manufacturing, Brand Reputation through Compliance Global Standards helps provide assurance that products are safe, of high quality, and that they meet (and exceed) legal requirements.
BRCGS has established global standards across food safety, packaging materials, distribution and more, offering different certification options for those looking to take their business to the next level.
Used by over 30,000 certified suppliers, BRCGS certifications gives businesses an edge over competitors and helps attract new customers (like leading UK supermarkets).
