What makes food safety certification different?
Certification bodies in this sector certify against a wide range of schemes — food safety, organic, animal welfare, animal feed, seed & crop, and sustainability — each with its own audit criteria, forms, and certificate content. Much of the work is also tied to farming production cycles, where audits have to be carried out at the right stage of the growing, harvest, or livestock process.
Generic audit tools ignore that reality. Zertic is built around it.
