DairyKo maintains BRCGS Agents & Brokers AA Grade certification, supporting food manufacturers with traceability, supplier approval and technical documentation.
Looking for a BRCGS certified food supplier? At DairyKo, food safety, traceability and supplier approval are an important part of how we work with food manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and foodservice businesses.
Our latest audit confirms our continued certification to the BRCGS Global Standard for Agents & Brokers, Issue 3, at AA Grade, with no exclusions across Category 1 and Category 2.
For customers looking for a BRCGS certified food ingredients supplier, our certification provides independent recognition of the systems and processes we have in place as an agent and broker within the food supply chain.
The BRCGS Global Standard for Agents & Brokers is designed for businesses that buy, sell or facilitate the trade of products but may not manufacture or physically handle those products themselves.
This makes it particularly relevant to DairyKo and the way we operate as a wholesale dairy and food ingredients supplier.
Certification assesses the systems businesses have in place across areas such as product safety, quality, supplier management, traceability and documentation.
BRCGS audit grades reflect the number and severity of non-conformities identified during an audit.
Achieving an AA Grade demonstrates a high level of conformity with the requirements of the BRCGS Agents & Brokers standard.
Importantly, BRCGS certification isn’t simply a badge that a business obtains once. Certification is maintained through ongoing audits, meaning the systems and procedures behind it have to continue meeting the requirements of the standard.
For DairyKo, maintaining our BRCGS AA Grade reflects the work carried out across the business to maintain the standards expected from a professional food ingredients supplier.
For food manufacturers and other businesses operating within controlled food supply chains, supplier approval can be an important part of the purchasing process.
Working with a BRCGS certified supplier can provide additional confidence that recognised systems are in place around areas such as:
This can be particularly important for food manufacturers that operate under their own food safety and quality accreditation and need appropriate documentation from their suppliers.
Traceability is an essential part of professional food ingredient supply.
When sourcing products through DairyKo, our role isn’t simply to find a product and arrange a price. We work with approved suppliers and manufacturers and maintain the relevant information and documentation required as part of our BRCGS Agents & Brokers certification.
This gives our customers a structured supply route when sourcing dairy products and food ingredients.
Alongside our sales and supply functions, DairyKo has a dedicated technical department.
For customers purchasing food ingredients, particularly manufacturers, technical information can be just as important as pricing and availability.
Depending on the product and requirement, our technical team can assist with relevant documentation and information such as product specifications, certificates and supporting technical documentation.
If you require particular documentation before approving a new ingredient or supplier, let our team know when making your enquiry.
DairyKo supplies products across a broad range of dairy and food ingredient categories, including cheese, butter and spreads, liquid egg and egg products, dairy powders, vegan and plant-based products, cream and milk, yoghurt, mayonnaise, potato flakes and other food ingredients.
Our BRCGS certification relates to DairyKo’s activities as an Agent & Broker, rather than meaning that every individual product carries a BRCGS certification.
If your business has specific certification, manufacturing, origin, allergen or technical requirements for a product, speak to our team so these can be checked against the relevant specification and supply route.
We don’t just state that DairyKo is BRCGS certified — customers can check our current certification.
Our BRCGS certificate is available through the DairyKo Technical page, alongside further information about our technical standards and accreditations.
BRCGS certification can also be independently verified through the official BRCGS Directory.
