Your customers want reliable, clean, cost-effective products – quality isn’t something you can sacrifice. The stringent food safety systems at our Canadian production facility enables us to provide you with products you can have confidence in. Manufacturing quality products is the most important thing we do. Our Quality System ensures controls are in place for the manufacture and handling of all the ingredients we produce. The in-house Quality Control/Assurance Department works hand in hand with production, maintenance and shipping/receiving to ensure that quality standards are recognized, implemented, enhanced and maintained throughout operations. We continue to advance through quality inspection, rigorous testing, monitoring, internal auditing, sanitation verification, and environmental monitoring with the goal of consistent improvement of quality processes and increased efficiency while meeting all standards and regulations.
The Quality Management System extends beyond the Quality Control Department to every employee in the facility. All employees adhere to the quality standards of production we have established at every step in the process. Every person involved in production is trained to meet the standards we have set for hygiene, sanitation, product quality and targeted product specification. To us, everything matters.
