BRC Global Standard - Food

Highlander Snacks Ltd.
(Snack Company)

Through the support and guidance of Knight International Inspectorate, Highlander Snacks Ltd. Have managed to gain Certification to the BRC Global Standard – Food.

From the first point of contact through to receiving our certificate, Phillip Knight and his team have been supportive, professional and most of all friendly throughout. This is why we have decided to use Knight International Inspectorate for our future audits and would thoroughly recommend them to other companies`

Muntons plc have used Knight International Inspectorate for certification of both the Malt and Malted Ingredients Division against the BRC Global Standard-Food.

We have been impressed by their prompt and constructive response to enquiries, the professionalism of their assessors and the speed at which they prepare audit reports. We have also found their costs to be very competitive. We would recommend them to any organisation seeking a professional service.

Mr Phil Ashton (QA & Food Safety Manager)

Ricon Foods Technology Limited (Food Ingredients)

May I take this opportunity to express my delight in your approach to the Evaluation. Your help made what is a ultimately a very stressful day as easy as possible. Your program for the day's events helped the audit flow and eased all tensions for both myself and that of my colleagues on the factory floor. I now look upon your visits as a good opportunity to further develop my factory systems which is a positive for Ricon Food Technology.

Peter Edwards (Factory Manager)

Lincoln & York Limited
(Coffee)

Knight International Inspectorate has been very thorough and supportive while performing evaluations at our factory, and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Simon Herring (Managing Director)

Beatus Cartons

On behalf of the Beatus Cartons Management Team, I would like to express my appreciation for the level of service and guidance received during the period of the Company attaining the certification to the BRC/IoP packaging standard.

This particular standard was new to us but having held ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification with a different certification body for a number of years, we felt that a change of auditing body would provide a fresh viewpoint.

I am pleased to say we found that your company's service was equal to, in some aspects better than that of other well known larger organisations with the added benefit of a considerable reduction in cost.

Andrew Butler (Quality Manager)

Coflex Films Ltd

We found Philip Knight's approach to the standard to be refreshingly practical from the start. He has always been available to assist us in resolving any issues and has helped us to drive forward and improve our Management Systems following Certification in February 2003

Sue Mohan (Director)

A supplier recommended that our company should make contact with Knight International Inspectorate (Kii) with regard to achieving certification to the BRC/IoP technical standard.

Having spoken to other such companies it was clear from the initial contact with Phil Knight that we were dealing with a company different to their competitors – a professional outfit with an eye for detail that would be available at all times to assist us in working towards final certification to the BRC/IoP standard.

Through consultation and the evaluation processes of Kii (and plenty of hard work from ourselves), Acton Plastics Limited achieved certification to the BRC/Iop technical standard category B in February 2003.

Kii continue to evaluate our manufacturing process with regard to the standards requirements and we have happily recommend their services to other companies in our industry.
