Peterborough, UK: JS Davidson has been awarded an AA+ grade for storage and distribution from BRCGS for the next year. AA is the highest grade to be achieved from a BRCGS audit but companies that participate in an unannounced visit receive a + after their grade.
The BRCGS (previously the British Retail Consortium), sets international standards for food safety and ensures that organisations adhere to regulatory mandates for the safe storage and distribution of food products. This prevents cross-contamination between food items and ensures consumer protection.
John Davidson, managing director, JS Davidson said: “To not only renew but beat last year’s BCRSG grade is a huge testament to the commitment and dedication of our much-valued team in ensuring that products are handled both safely and compliantly.
“With the supply chain becoming increasingly scrutinised, as well as customer expectation increasing, the importance of the BRCSG accreditation to the business is huge. Having been one of the first temperature-controlled operator to be awarded the accreditation back in 2006, it is one which has underpinned our ability to retain and attract high-profile brands to our ever-growing customer portfolio.
