With nearly 2 decades of proven expertise in accredited auditing, certification, and supplier assessments, Certima has positioned itself as a reliable and respected partner in advancing supplier food safety and quality assurance.
We support retailers, restaurant chains, wholesalers, importers, and global manufacturers with supplier assurance, and we have conducted over 1,000 supplier audits in the past 15 years.
Beyond mainstream food safety certification, there are facets of compliance that vary in importance across stakeholders. From product specification adherence, food fraud prevention and ethical sourcing to traceability, environmental impact or governance. It is critical to assure these aspects through targeted supply chain audits, which provide deeper visibility into supplier practices, help identify specific vulnerabilities, and support the implementation of effective, risk-based controls. This approach not only strengthens compliance and brand protection but also builds trust and resilience throughout the supply chain.
