This was achieved following recent unannounced BRC Global Standards (BRCGS) and Gluten Free Certification Program (GFCP) Audits for Food Safety.
The demand for gluten free foods continues to grow and Middleton Food’s extensive portfolio of products enables their customers to cater for an increasing number of people who have specific dietary requirements.
Speaking about the certification Paul Stanley, foodservice manager at Middleton Foods, said: “I’m absolutely delighted for the entire Middleton Foods team – the status are testament to their commitment and dedication to maintaining such excellent standards of food safety. Everyone within the business should take enormous pride in these fantastic achievements.
“Food safety is critical, and expectations placed on food industry manufacturers and suppliers are high – rightly so. The BRCGS grading system reflects food hygiene practices, and standards are extremely thorough.
“Receiving such a high-grade status for food safety, from a globally renowned certification, gives us an internationally recognised mark of food quality, safety and responsibility. It assures our customers of our approach to the quality of our processes and food safety management.”
