The BRCGS Global Food Safety Standard has set the benchmark for nearly 25 years. Adopted by over 22,000 sites in more than 130 countries, the standard is accepted by 70% of the top 10 global retailers, 60% of the top 10 quick-service restaurants, and 50% of the top 25 manufacturers.

Now in its 9th edition, the standard has constantly evolved to protect the consumer. It was the first standard to be GFSI benchmarked, as well as introduce food safety culture requirements, define food fraud, and reduce audit burden through additional modules.

Developed with input from industry, it provides a framework to manage product safety, integrity, legality and quality, and the operational controls for these criteria in the food and food ingredient manufacturing, processing and packing industry.

Since 2021, our BRCGS consultants have assisted many clients throughout the food supply chain to get BRCGS certified. Our BRCGS consultants have an in-depth knowledge of the requirements of BRCGS certification to give you the confidence that you need going into your BRCGS audit.

What is the difference between BRC & BRCGS?

The British Retail Consortium (BRC) was developed in the UK as a trade association and they created BRC food standards to help ensure safe products. BRC Global Standards were acquired by LGC Assure & the name of the standards were changed to BRCGS (Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards). BRC & BRCGS are often used interchangeably in the food industry.

Market access through highly trusted marks

The Food Safety standard is the leading Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) scheme, and the most widely accepted by specifiers, brands and retailers.

Manufacturers with the BRCGS certification have many food safety benefits and have been shown to perform better than both non-certified sites, as well as those with other GFSI programmes. 

A clear point of difference between BRCGS Food Safety and other certification schemes is a compliance programme that provides control over the operational delivery of its certification programmes. 

This includes delivery partner performance management, and management of auditor competence based on exams and food safety training.

Independent research, carried out by the University of Birkbeck, demonstrates that organizations operating to BRCGS standards improve food safety, operational efficiency, commercial growth, improved profitability and broad-based innovation.
