Why this travels
Built for suppliers who are not certified yet
The GFSI Global Markets Programme exists so that buyers can work with suppliers who are not yet certified to a full scheme, on a documented path towards it. Large retailers and manufacturers use it worldwide as an onboarding route, which makes it one of the most portable things on this page.
- Basic then intermediate: a staged progression rather than a pass or fail audit.
- Scheme-neutral foundations, so the work counts whichever recognised scheme you go on to.
- Buyer-facing evidence that a programme is in place while certification is still in progress.
- A realistic route for a smaller supplier into a large customer.
Straight answer
What a toolkit does, and what it does not do
You get the documented system already written and structured to the standard: the manual, procedures, forms, registers and risk assessments. That is normally the slowest part of getting certified and the part that is identical from one site to the next.
It does not implement itself. Someone at your site still has to make the documents true, with your process steps, your hazards, your suppliers and your monitoring records. Local food law, such as labelling and permits, stays local and is yours to add.
If you would rather not do that alone, we work with teams remotely as well as on site.
