GlobalG.A.P.

GOOD AGRICULTURAL PRACTICE FOR FRUIT VEGETABLES - FLOWERS-ORNAMENTALS

Our Services

The GlobalG.A.P scheme provides for two different types of certification, depending on the sophistication of the applicant:
Option 1 – Individual producer certification;
Option 2 – Producer group certification (e.g. agricultural cooperatives, producer organisations, etc).
For option 2, the legal entity representing the producers must implement a common Quality Management System (QMS) in order to assure control over all of the members of the producer group, both at the documentary and implementation levels.
Benefiting from a long experience in the agri-food sector, Certiquality provides accredited certification services against GlobalG.A.P. standards in the fields of fruit and vegetable production and floriculture (Fruit & Vegetables and Flowers & Ornamentals standards)
