Business support organisation The Food and Drink Forum is teaming up with Giltbrook Workwear to run a session aimed at helping East Midlands food and drink companies get to grips with changes to one of the key food standard accreditations.
Entitled BRC Unravelled, the free event will turn the spotlight on the British Retail Consortium (BRC) accreditation, which has recently been upgraded.
It is being held at the premises of Food and Drink Forum member Giltbrook Workwear at Mercian Close, Manners Industrial Estate, Ilkeston, in Derbyshire on Wednesday September 12th between 8am and 10am.
?Many retailers and food service operators demand accreditations from their suppliers so it makes excellent business sense for manufacturers to invest in gaining the standards,? said Richard Wigley, The Food and Drink Forum?s technical manager.
?This event will look at the recent changes to BRC, how to achieve and maintain BRC the smart way, and will illustrate how BRC can help companies to save money.?
The breakfast meeting, which is open to members and non-members of The Food and Drink Forum, will also look at SALSA ? the Safe and Local Supplier Approval certification scheme aimed at micro-sized producers.
As part of the session, delegates will hear about companies who have successfully achieved BRC and other accreditations, and how it has benefited their business.
