Exhibitor Profile

Just in case you have not implemented a high performance food safety and hygiene system in your business: These are the stages toward obtaining a HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) certificate:

You provide us with the necessary documents that will allow us to assess your handling system.
We assess your handling system and identify "Critical Control Points."
Either you write your own handling system plan or we write it for you.
You implement the handling system plan.
We perform an initial on-site inspection.
We write an assessment report and if you have met the minimum requirements, we will issue a HACCP-Certificate to you.
We return for annual follow-up inspections.
Regularly you will receive from us news and information relevant to your handling system.

If you have already implemented a high performance food safety and hygiene system, we should be glad to audit your system or arrange for continuing education events for your staff.

Certification Grows Confidence

Growing and selling nourishing products in an environmentally friendly way — that is what all producers with an environmental conscience want to do. But when is organic really organic, and just who do we trust on this judgement call?

The requirements made of certified organic products are a tall order, but regulated tightly in the United States and the European Union. Organic producers, for instance, do not use chemical fertilizers on their pastures or growth boosting hormones in their dairy herds. They minimise social and environmental externalities, maximise opportunities for on-farm cycling of resources and mind the welfare of their animals and workers.

A package labelled "certified organic" has to have "certified organic" in it. That is why every producer, processor and importer of organic foods has to undergo the scrutiny of a registered and licensed inspection body. QC&I is one of several inspection bodies you can choose from. QC&I is the one you should choose, you can bet on it!

What does QC&I do?

Our focus is "organic agriculture." QC&I was one of the first approved private inspection bodies for organic farming in the European Union. For more than 20 years we have been active in all parts of the world.

We inspect organic farming systems (and those who want to be), then issue the certificate that allows you to add the "certified" to your organic products. In Germany and any where outside the European Union.
We issue transaction certificates, inspect contract farming, outsourced processing and we can audit your suppliers.

We cover the range of food safety, quality assurance and environmental management:

We design and validate a HACCP system for you and teach your staff about it.
We audit your Quality Handbook and design and audit your environmental management system.
