BRC ed. 6 January 2012 - Global standard for food safety
 Reference market
- Food processing companies which supply their products to large-scale British retailers where this certification is often a qualification pre-requisite for suppliers
Reasons and benefits
International recognition of the standard gives certified companies considerable visibility also thanks to inclusion of the company’s contact details on the specific BRC internet site.
Moreover, thanks to this tool, company products are more easily identifiable by brand and category at all international markets and purchasers.
Main aspects
Adoption of the Standard leads to:
- better image protection for those placing the products on the market
- suppliers in line with the requirements of British retailers
- consumer expectations and health protection guarantee
- international recognition of food safety
- fewer second party audits
- combined audits with other schemes (i.e. IFS) with auditors qualified in both schemes
