Bretts Transport has once again secured the highest possible food safety accreditation, earning a prestigious BRCGS AA+ grade following an unannounced audit of its warehousing and transport operations.
The Guyhirn-based company received the coveted AA+ rating after inspectors assessed every aspect of its food storage and distribution processes.
The achievement marks the 13th consecutive year Bretts has maintained BRCGS accreditation and the third year running it has achieved the highest possible grade.
The AA+ rating was awarded following an unannounced audit. This was voluntarily adopted by Bretts to demonstrate that exceptional standards are maintained every day, not just during scheduled inspections.
Recognised globally as one of the most rigorous food safety and quality certifications, the BRCGS standard evaluates every area of a business. BRCGS covers everything from site and building management to product traceability, vehicle hygiene and operational procedures.
