2019. The successful completion of the comprehensive and
careful examination, and receipt of the 'Double Certification' will
now allow us to fully utilize an expected 20% increase in
production capacity achieved by our investment and technology
transformation project. It is very timely for us to have the
increased capacity given our accelerating sales channel development
and demand growth. Our strategy of innovation-driven development
and commitment to green, intelligent, high-end, standardized
requirements, will help us to further improve quality and
efficiency, and solidly promote the high-quality development of
enterprises."
China Quality Certification Center conducted the audits. Its
audit team carried out an expansive on-site inspection and audited
the Company's entire process from food inspection, production and
storage to sales and distribution. After three days of
comprehensive, careful examination, the audit team gave high marks
for the Company's food safety management and control, production
site management and control, product traceability and product
inspection capabilities and processes.
The BRC Global Standard for Food Safety is one of the
highest standards of the EU food safety system, and has become the
internationally recognized food standard quality system audit
standard. The audit standard includes all relevant employees of the
application enterprise, product quality, the quality and safety and
health assurance ability of food suppliers, and the safety
assurance ability of food sales and inventory.
HACCP is an assessment of hazards that may occur during food
