Maintain Food Safety Along the Supply Chain

Display your commitment to the highest food quality, safety, and legal standards when you achieve certification to the IFS Logistics Standard.

Certification demonstrates that your organization strives for excellence in quality and customer satisfaction while providing you with a competitive advantage. You can prove to your customers that all logistics activities for food and nonfood products, such as transport, storage, distribution, loading, and unloading, stay stable along the supply chain.

IFS Logistics is a standard for auditing companies whose activities are logistics-oriented for food and nonfood products, such as transport, storage, loading/unloading, etc.
IFS Logistics applies to all types of transport: delivery by road, rail, ship or plane; frozen/refrigerated products; or ambient stable products (different states of matter: liquid, solid or gas).
This standard also applies to freezing and thawing service providers, as well as to logistics companies that use service providers for their transport and/or storage activities.

This internationally recognized standard encourages best practices within the distribution chain, allowing you to meet quality and food safety specifications set by trading partners at home and abroad, while boosting customer confidence.

The Certification Process

The IFS certification provided by our experts involves the following stages:

Pre-audit (optional)
Certification audit
Annual recertification audit

A follow-up audit is required when the results of the audit (an initial audit or a renewal audit) have been insufficient to allow the award of the certificate.
