How Can a Cashew Processing Factory Obtain BRC Certification?

BRC Certified is not just a food safety standard; it is a key factor in enhancing brand credibility and expanding export opportunities. To achieve this certification, cashew processing factories must undergo a rigorous process that includes process improvement, investment in technology, and compliance with international food safety standards.

1. Internal Audit and Documentation Preparation

✅ Evaluate Production Processes: Identify areas that need improvement to meet BRC Certified requirements.

✅ Establish a Quality Management System: Implement HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) to manage food safety risks.

✅ Prepare Comprehensive Documentation: The factory must develop complete traceability records, quality control protocols, and sanitation procedures.

2. Infrastructure and Production Process Improvement

✅ Invest in Advanced Processing Technology: Sorting, packaging, and moisture control systems must meet international standards.

✅ Enhance Sanitation and Hygiene: Implement strict hygiene practices to maintain a contamination-free production environment.

✅ Train Employees: Workers must receive training in food safety, hygiene, and proper handling of raw materials.

3. Inspection and Certification by an Authorized Body

✅ Pre-Audit Assessment: Factories can conduct internal audits to prepare for official inspections.

✅ Official Inspection: BRC Certified auditors visit the factory to evaluate documentation, production processes, and compliance with food safety regulations.

✅ Obtain BRC Certification: If the factory meets all requirements, it will receive BRC Certified accreditation, valid for 12 months.

4. Maintaining and Improving Compliance

✅ Annual Audits: Factories must undergo yearly inspections to maintain their certification.
