This entry is listed before its number is published. It records the standard, the issuing body and the scope we require. Ask us for a copy, or for the number, and we will send what we hold.

01 / Scope

What this document covers.

GMP covers the conditions product claims are actually made in: hygiene regime, equipment calibration, storage controls and personnel practice. Like HACCP, it sits with the facility rather than the trader.

We require it from every food plant we buy from before the first order, and the certificate is named on this entry with the plant it belongs to. Until an order is placed with a specific plant, there is no plant to name.

02 / For buyers

What this means for your order.

Plain-language notes on what the document does and does not tell you.

  • Ask for the GMP certificate of the plant making your product, with its number and expiry.
  • We will not accept a food plant on the strength of a photograph of a certificate.

03 / Verification

How to check it independently.

A certificate number is only useful if you can take it to the source. Here is where to take this one.

  1. 01

    Take the number from this page

    The number is not published yet. Ask us and we will send the issued copy or the application reference.

  2. 02

    Search the issuing body’s register

    The issuing body is SGS. Search its public register, or call it, using the number and the company or plant name.

  3. 03

    Confirm the scope, not just the status

    Check that the scope on the register matches the scope printed here. A valid certificate for the wrong activity is not cover for your order.
