BRCGS Food Safety (BRC)
Food-safety, product-integrity and operational-control requirements for relevant food operations.
Quality, Food Safety & Processing
Quality is built into every stage.
From crop handling and grading to packing, frozen formats and export preparation, quality starts with clear requirements and careful coordination.
From origin to market
Good quality is planned before dispatch.
Our approach begins by agreeing product specifications, reviewing available supply, and aligning handling, grading, packing and destination requirements. Where applicable, we consider internationally used food-safety, good-agriculture, quality-management, worker-welfare and responsible-sourcing frameworks. Any certification, audit result or site-level status is confirmed for the relevant farm, product or facility before it is stated.
Align specifications, handling, packing and destination requirements before the shipment plan is confirmed.

International quality references
Standards & frameworks in focus
These internationally used standards and supply-chain frameworks help structure quality discussions and buyer requirements where they are relevant to a product or operation.
GLOBALG.A.P.
Good agricultural practices, farm management and traceability requirements where applicable.
ISO 9001
Quality-management principles, process consistency and continual improvement.
GRASP
A GLOBALG.A.P. add-on addressing social practice and worker-related requirements.
SEDEX / SMETA
Supply-chain visibility and ethical-trade assessment approaches; these are not a company certification.
Listing a framework here does not mean ENCAP or a particular supplier holds that certification or has completed an audit. Current status is confirmed for the specific farm, product or facility and shared only when documented.

Quality practices across the supply chain
The checks and records required for each order depend on the crop, its origin, the selected facility and the buyer’s destination requirements.

Condition, sorting & grading
Review available product condition and agree the applicable sorting, grading and acceptance criteria for the order.
03
Food safety & hygienic handling
Discuss suitable handling, cleaning, storage and product-protection controls with the responsible farm or facility.

Packing, cold chain & dispatch
Confirm packing formats, labelling, temperature-sensitive handling and destination needs before dispatch planning.
