The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI)
The Global Food Safety Initiative has been established to ensure confidence in the delivery of safer food to consumers. The goal is for continuous improvement in food safety supply chain management. GFSI also provides a benchmark to ensure consistency between countries and the products that have been certified. The GFSI was launched in May 2000 by CIES – The Food Business Forum, an independent global food business network in more than 150 countries, with retailers as its largest group. GFSI was a retailer driven certification program that is now strengthened with the participation of the food service sector. Currently, seven major global retailers (Carrefour, Tesco, Metro, Migros, Ahold, Wal-Mart and Delhaize) along with the National Restaurant Association have agreed to common acceptance of the aforementioned four global food safety certifications. Certifications cover food, packaging, consumer goods, storage and distribution, for primary producers, manufacturers and distributors. CIES benchmarked the standards below as part of GFSI: British Retail Consortium (BRC), Safe Quality Food (SQF), International Food Standard (IFS), and Global-GAP.
