Four BWG Value Centre cash-and-carry branches have been awarded AA BRCGS storage and distribution accreditation – the highest grade of certification available.
The BRCGS storage and distribution standard is specifically designed for logistics operations dealing with food, packaging, and consumer products. It is also recognised globally.
The BRCGS accreditation was created to ensure supplier compliance and secure foodservice businesses’ ability to guarantee the quality and safety of the food products that they sell.
It demonstrates BWG’s commitment to providing assurance to its foodservice customers of its dedication to food safety and quality.
The recognition is also a testament to the dedication of all involved in the four branches.
The four branches recognised are Value Centre North Road, Value Centre Cork, Value Centre Galway, and Value Centre Letterkenny.
‘A Fantastic Achievement’
Commenting on the certifications, the director of BWG Foods’ cash-and-carry sector, Vincent Brown, said, “We are delighted that the Value Centre branches who went for BRCGS storage and distribution accreditation in recent months received AA grades.
“This is a fantastic achievement of all four sites, and something we are very proud of as a business.”
These BRCGS accreditation awards, paired with BWG’s Origin Green certification, particularly demonstrate its ongoing commitment to sustainable practices.
BWG Foods has been an accredited member of Origin Green since 2018, and it is committed to the implementation of targets and commitments that develop and grow its sustainability credentials.
Brown added, “We have always worked hard to ensure that our business adheres to highest food safety standards, and this accreditation demonstrates that our efforts are paying off.
“This certification is only awarded to businesses that operate to the highest standards, and we are thrilled that Value Centres Cork, Galway, Letterkenny and North Road have all achieved the highest level available.”
