GFSI is delivering on their commitment to explore options in non-standard auditing as a result of COVID-19. Released as part of their initial position on March 16th, GFSI and the their Stakeholder Advisory Forum will be releasing GFSI Benchmarking Requirements to address the use of Information and Communication Technologies throughout the food safety auditing process.
For more information on the new proposed amendments to the GFSI Benchmarking requirements and how to submit your feedback, visit the GFSI Website.
With Edition 10 audits arriving as early as Jan. 2, 2027, sites that start closing gaps today will walk into their audit with far more confidence than those scrambling at the end of 2026.
SQF Food Safety Code Edition 10 is now available, and it marks more than a routine update to the Code.
As we move toward the launch of SQF Edition 10 in early March, one message is clear. Food safety is no longer evaluated only through programs, procedures, and records.
