Marfrig achieves top score in the BRC certification
Marfrig's processing unit in Hulha Negra/Pampeano, in Rio Grande do Sul, went further and received an AA+ grade after undergoing an unannounced audit.
After the audit circuit, Marfrig's processing unit in Várzea Grande/MT and 10 of the company's slaughtering and deboning plants in the country obtained the maximum AA score. Inaugurated in August this year, the hamburger factory in Bataguassu will still undergo a BRC certification audit.
Large retail groups in Europe require BRC certification for companies intending to sell food products to the continent. Furthermore, European retailers require an independent third party to approve the suppliers' quality and food safety system. Customers in Chile, the United States and the United Arab Emirates also require certification.
"BRC's maximum score has worldwide recognition, which allows Marfrig to strengthen its relationships with the most important global markets. The result achieved demonstrates the company's commitment to the effective control of internal processes, the minimization of risks and transparency", says Paulo Pianez, director of Sustainability and Corporate Communication at Marfrig.
