Contact Us TodayBRCGS certification in Vancouver rides the city's export orientation: BC seafood, natural foods, and specialty products flow to the UK, Europe, and Asia-Pacific buyers for whom BRCGS is the most familiar GFSI mark, and UK-headquartered retail groups active in Canadian sourcing specify it directly. Local seafood processors start from a mandatory HACCP-based PCP foundation; natural-foods manufacturers typically bring strong quality culture but need the standard's formalized site standards, internal audit, and product-security elements built out.
Increasingly yes — major Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian import groups and retailers accept GFSI-benchmarked certificates, and BRCGS's global footprint gives it solid recognition across Asia-Pacific procurement. It won't replace destination-market regulatory requirements or CFIA export certification where required, but it answers the supplier-assurance question most sophisticated Asian buyers ask. For Vancouver's Pacific trade, that dual-ocean recognition is the point.
Issue 9 requires documented site security and food defence assessments plus a vulnerability assessment for food fraud — raw materials scored for substitution and adulteration risk, with mitigation for the vulnerable ones. For seafood, species substitution is the canonical fraud risk auditors probe; for natural foods, premium-ingredient adulteration. We build both assessments with controls that match your actual supply chain.
A GFSI-recognized standard widely accepted by UK and European retailers, with growing adoption by North American manufacturers exporting globally.
