CMi Certification achieved for frozen food division
Following our first audit on 8th December last year, the company can announce that we have achieved Higher Level CMi Certification for the wholesale storage and distribution of frozen food.
This is a food industry accreditation which recognizes high standards of operation. It encompasses HACCP and quality management systems, product control, housekeeping, premises, staff training and delivery.
This is is important for us as it gives our customers further confidence in the way we store, handle and distribute frozen goods. We have already gained Grade A accreditation for our meat division and this will be followed with accreditation for our ambient and chilled division in coming months.
