“What ultimately lands on the plates of consumers, originates in the feed boxes of animals”, says company owner Geert Scherrens. “For that very reason feed quality has always been our number one priority. To ensure the quality of our products, we are certified for several scopes of the GMP+ Feed Responsibility Assurance (GMP+ FRA). Because GMP+ is an internationally recognised certificate, we can demonstrate all over the world that our feed meets the necessary quality and safety requirements. Our certification also allowed us to participate in several specific tenders, both at home as well as abroad. And in recruiting new clients, a GMP+ certificate ensures a professional first impression as well.”
“At Voeders Scherrens we are especially fond of GMP+ International’s Early Warning System. This system makes sure we can act immediately when incidents occur somewhere in the supply chain that can affect the quality of our product and the health of animals.”
“The auditing process is fast and efficient, meaning our three certificates are audited during one single site visit. For our quality officer this means less hassle and more time to really invest the quality of our production process. In the years ahead we will continue working with GMP+ so we can build upon our futureproof and sustainable quality policies in order to be prepared for tomorrow’s farming.”
