Our portfolio spans food and beverage manufacturers, wellness brands, retailers, and the animal food industry. We meet the diverse needs of our global customers by ensuring that our processes align with the most rigorous food safety and sustainability standards.

- Commitment to Quality:

Uncompromising quality is at the heart of what we do. By directly managing farming operations, we oversee every detail—from nurturing the soil to harvesting at peak flavor. Our vertically integrated approach ensures that every herb, spice, leaf, and seed is grown with care and processed in state-of-the-art facilities under the strictest food safety protocols.
To meet and exceed global standards, we operate under frameworks recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), ensuring credibility and global acceptance of our food safety practices. Our facilities are certified under FSSC 22000, a GFSI-recognized certification scheme, which guarantees that every stage of our supply chain—from raw material sourcing to final delivery—is managed with precision and care. We also adhere to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and implement robust Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) plans, ensuring that risks are identified and mitigated effectively. Additionally, we partner with renowned laboratories such as Eurofins and GBA Germany for thorough product testing.
This comprehensive approach to food safety and quality gives our customers across Europe, North America, and the UK confidence in every product we deliver, whether for food and beverage manufacturing, animal food, or wellness products.
