QUALITY

Certified quality across the entire chain

We work exclusively with growers operating to the sector's most demanding standards — GlobalGAP, GRASP and IFS — and hold GlobalGAP Chain of Custody certification, guaranteeing full product traceability, from field to destination.

CERTIFICATIONS

Our certifications

We work to the most demanding standards in the industry. Every certification listed here is a real requirement we demand from our growers and suppliers — these are not decorative labels.

GlobalGAP

GlobalGAP

Good Agricultural Practices

The international reference standard for responsible agricultural production. It covers growing practices, pesticide use, water management and product safety. For you as a buyer, it means the product comes from farms audited under a protocol recognised across Europe.

GRASP

GRASP

Risk Assessment on Social Practice

An additional GlobalGAP module that assesses social and labour conditions on farms. It verifies that workers enjoy labour rights, decent conditions and freedom from abusive practices. Required by many major European retailers.

IFS Food

IFS Food

International Featured Standards — Food

A food safety standard designed specifically for major European retail chains. Required by German, French and northern European supermarket chains. Covers hygiene, traceability, allergen control and complaint management.

GlobalGAP CoC

GlobalGAP CoC

GlobalGAP Chain of Custody

The CoC certification covers not only growers — it applies to the entire chain. As a certified trading company, we guarantee that the product we deliver retains its GlobalGAP traceability from the field to the point of delivery. Not all exporters hold this certification.

BRCGS

BRCGS

British Retail Consortium Global Standard

A food safety standard required by British retail and many Central European chains. It covers product safety, legality and quality. Obtaining it involves unannounced audits and very strict hygiene and traceability requirements.

EU Organic

EU Organic

EU Organic Production

Official organic production certification under EU Regulation 2018/848. It guarantees that the product was grown without synthetic pesticides or highly soluble chemical fertilisers, under the control of an accredited body approved by the competent authority.

Demeter

Demeter

Demeter — Biodynamic Agriculture

The most demanding level of organic agriculture. Demeter certifies biodynamic farming, which goes beyond conventional organic standards and integrates criteria of biodiversity, soil health and natural cycles. A high-value niche in premium European markets.

SUPPLIER SELECTION

What we require before working with a grower

Active certification

Every grower in our portfolio must maintain at least an active GlobalGAP certificate. Without a current certificate, there is no collaboration.

GRASP audit

We verify that agricultural workers operate under fair conditions. GRASP compliance is mandatory in our supplier selection process.

Documentary traceability

Every shipment must be accompanied by complete documentation of origin, lot, grower and certificate. Without exception.

FOR THE BUYER

What does this mean for you, as a buyer?

When you work with Verdika, you do not need to ask for the paperwork: it is already there. Every shipment arrives with full traceability, from the grower of origin to your warehouse. This is what allows our clients to meet the requirements of their own buyers — supermarkets, distribution platforms, import chains — without friction.
