Customers who choose us to package, store and handle their ambient food products and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) can have complete confidence in our services after two of our warehouses were ranked AA by the Brand Reputation Compliance (BRC) Global Standards. Unit 5, Port One was awarded this grade after its first inspection, with the White House, Ipswich site being upgraded after an annual audit.
The BRC is an independent body which monitors businesses’ food safety, packaging, materials, storage, and distribution standards on behalf of consumers. Having achieved the highest grade possible without an unannounced inspection, our customers can feel reassured that our processes are safe and of the highest quality at both warehouses.
Complete service, highest standards
Alongside our Organic and Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) accreditations, this new grading is a hallmark of our team’s experience in storing and handling a wide range of consumer products. It also gives our customers peace of mind that our full warehousing services, including delivery to all major UK supermarket RDCs are run compliantly and safely.
On achieving the new grades, Customer Service and Compliance Manager Greg Palmer, said, “When it comes to ambient and FMCG goods, it’s not just a case of delivering a full service efficiently, but thinking through every step to ensure products are handled correctly and hygienically. Our team works tirelessly to do both, which is why we’re so pleased to have received these ratings for both our facilities.
“We hope this gives customers extra reassurance that we can handle the worldwide shipping and warehousing of ambient food products, organic foods, and FMCG goods, no matter how specialist they may be.
“Plus, major retailers require consumer products to be warehoused in BRC-accredited facilities as part of their quality and compliance standards. By being BRCGS accredited, we make it possible for our customers to sell into the big players by meeting these standards”
