GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) Implementation in Vancouver: What Makes It Different

GMP implementation across Metro Vancouver contends with some of Canada's most expensive industrial real estate — food businesses operate in tighter footprints, older waterfront buildings, and shared facilities more often than their eastern counterparts, and the GMP program has to deliver segregation, flow, and storage discipline inside those constraints. Add the coastal climate's moisture and the port district's pest pressure, and the physical fundamentals demand more engineering judgment here than the standard checklist suggests.

Our facility is small and space-constrained — how do we achieve proper segregation?

With time and procedure where walls aren't possible: scheduled separation of incompatible activities with validated cleaning between them, mobile or designated equipment, colour-coding, sealed storage for allergens and chemicals, and traffic-flow rules that prevent crossover. Auditors accept procedural segregation when it's documented, trained, and evidenced in records. We design segregation schemes that work in the footprint you actually rent.

Can we share a commissary or co-manufacturing space and still meet GMP requirements?

Yes — shared facilities are certifiable and licensable when responsibilities are explicit: documented agreements on cleaning ownership, allergen mapping across all tenants' products, shared pest-control programs with accessible records, and your own monitoring evidence for the periods you operate. The failure mode is assuming the facility owner's compliance covers you; it doesn't. We build the tenant-side program that stands on its own.
