Frequently asked questions
What is BRCGS START! Issue 2 Intermediate Level?
BRCGS START! is a stepped programme that helps smaller and less-developed food businesses build a food safety management system gradually, before pursuing full BRCGS certification. The Intermediate Level (Issue 2) sits above the Basic Level and introduces more developed controls and documentation. These BRCGS START Intermediate document templates give South African producers the structured paperwork to implement the Intermediate Level requirements.
What's the difference between BRCGS START Basic and Intermediate?
BRCGS START! is staged. The Basic Level establishes foundational food safety practices and documentation for businesses early in their journey, while the Intermediate Level builds on that with more developed controls, procedures and records as the business matures toward full BRCGS Food Safety certification. Choose the BRCGS START Intermediate document templates when your operation has outgrown the basics and needs the next level of documentation.
Who is the BRCGS START Intermediate toolkit for?
It suits small and growing South African food producers who have established basic food safety practices and want to advance toward full BRCGS certification. The BRCGS START Intermediate document templates help these businesses formalise more developed procedures, records and risk assessments in a manageable, stepped way rather than jumping straight to a full standard before they are ready.
Are the BRCGS START Intermediate templates editable?
Yes. All documents are supplied in editable Word or Excel format so you can add your business details, products, processes and responsible persons. This lets small and growing South African food businesses tailor the BRCGS START Intermediate document templates to their actual operation and build their system step by step rather than starting from a blank page.
Does the Intermediate toolkit lead to full BRCGS certification?
BRCGS START! is designed as a progression path toward full BRCGS Food Safety certification, and the Intermediate Level is a step along that route, but it is a development programme rather than the full certified standard itself. The BRCGS START Intermediate document templates help build maturity; ASC Food Safety Consultants can also support your eventual move to a full BRCGS toolkit and audit readiness across South Africa.
How do I get the BRCGS START Intermediate templates from ASC?

ASC supports small and growing food businesses across South Africa from offices in Gqeberha, Johannesburg and Cape Town, and can add implementation guidance or BRCGS training.
