Risk Assessment
We provide comprehensive risk-assessment in the food and beverage field, preventing the possibility of a non-conformity or disputes; we ensure the standards of your business; we monitor the quality of your suppliers and dealers; draw your quality plan; support your import /export activities.
Suppliers evaluation and assessment might be challenging, especially when you are dealing with imports from third countries. While the ultimate legal responsibility for goods lies not only with the producer, but also with the distributor, it is mandatory to adopt all the due logistic strategies to ensure that the quality standard of the imported goods are preserved.
You need to write an annual quality plan to define on which products you should carry-out random/spot analyses to verify that the technical information provided by your providers are correct, considering eventually additional tests tailored to your customers needs and update your quality standards depending on the needs of your market, internal marketing or regulatory issues.
TRUSTiCERT provides you technical support through all the due steps, through a risk-assessment process, and to find-out the best solutions tailored to your business.

QUALITY PLAN
We design the quality plan that can meet your requirements, detailing in deep the analysis you should perform on the raw materials that you have bought (which analyses to be performed, on which goods and on which provider) as well as on the goods to be placed in the national and foreign market, as they are or semi-finished.
This starts from a deep evaluation of the technical data/material provided by the producer and goes through an internal programme of random controls that ensures the legal protection insurance for any hidden-defect or non-compliance.

The analysis is different in import and export procedures and depends on the country that is the final destination of the goods?
