Contact Us TodayWinnipeg processors pursuing BRCGS are usually chasing export markets or multinational ownership requirements — the city's grain-based manufacturers, protein processors, and ingredient plants sell into supply chains where the UK-born standard is the required GFSI credential. BRCGS Issue 9 asks more of prairie plants than a documentation upgrade: its food safety culture requirements, mandatory root-cause methodology, and the prospect of unannounced audits demand systems that hold in February cold snaps and harvest-season production peaks alike.
A written plan with defined activities, measurable objectives, and evidence of review — auditors expect to see how leadership communicates food safety, how frontline confidence to report issues is built, and how the plan's effectiveness gets measured, whether through surveys, behavioral observations, or internal metrics. It cannot be a paragraph of intentions. We build culture plans with measurement built in, because that's what Issue 9 audits actually probe.
If your customers value it, seriously consider it: unannounced certification signals continuous readiness and some UK and European buyers prefer or require it. The operational demand is real — records current every day, no pre-audit cleanup window — but a plant that can't pass unannounced arguably isn't sustainably compliant. We prepare sites to that standard regardless of which audit option they choose.
A GFSI-recognized standard widely accepted by UK and European retailers, with growing adoption by North American manufacturers exporting globally.
