What Is Safe Quality Food (SQF) Certification?
Globally recognized in the food industry, Safe Quality Food (SQF) Certification is a food quality and safety program designation awarded after a thorough and extensive auditing process. SQF evaluates various aspects of the company’s food safety program and quality management system – including personnel practices, facility maintenance and cleanliness, food defense plan, allergen program, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plans, employee training programs, and management commitment.
A Safe Quality Food (SQF) certification is important in food grade warehousing for several reasons:
- Ensures food safety: The primary purpose of an SQF certification is to ensure that food products are safe for consumption. This is particularly important in food grade warehousing, where food products may be stored for extended periods before they are distributed to consumers. SQF certification helps to ensure that food products are stored and handled in a manner that minimizes the risk of contamination or spoilage.
- Compliance with regulations: SQF certification helps to ensure that the warehouse is in compliance with relevant regulations and standards for food safety. This can include regulations related to sanitation, hygiene, temperature control, and pest control.
- Risk management: SQF certification provides a framework for identifying and managing risks related to food safety. This includes identifying potential hazards in the warehouse and implementing measures to mitigate those risks.
- Improved reputation: A warehouse that has an SQF certification demonstrates a commitment to food safety and quality, which can enhance its reputation among customers, suppliers, and regulatory agencies.
Corporate Storage’s SQF certification, through ASI, is an important tool for ensuring food safety and quality in our food grade warehousing operations.
