Originally introduced in 2006, the BRC Global Standard for Storage and Distribution was
established to offer logistics/warehouse providers and distributors a universally
recognized benchmark for service and process excellence. The Standard also offers the
essential certification link between the range of BRC manufacturing standards and the
end user, the retailer/food service company.
Obtaining and retaining BRC Global Standard Certification requires utilization and
adherence to a number of key operational features and policies, including exceptional
site cleanliness and sanitation, comprehensive auditing and reporting, extensive and
progressive product handling and vehicle operations plans/requirements, as well as
processes for swift corrective action based on active performance review.
