Gordon Rhodes & Sons Retain BRC A Level Certification
Following a recent British Retail Consortium audit, Gordon Rhodes & Son, the manufacturing arm of The Dalesman Group, from Bradford, West Yorkshire, have successfully retained grade A level certification.
The principal requirements of the standard are the adoption and implementation of a HACCP system, a documented and effective quality management system and a control of factory environmental standards, products, processes and personnel.
The BRC Food and Technical Standard has become invaluable to organisations within the food industry and is regarded as a benchmark for best practises. It is designed to be used as a pillar to help retailers & brand owners with their “Due Diligence” defence, should they be subject to a prosecution by the enforcement authorities.
Head of Group Sales, Tony Chapman added “BRC is an essential tool for us commercially in forming the framework for our customer service, continually retaining grade A certification shows our commitment to constantly improving our service levels’’
