From Farm to Fork
The key to maintaining our high standards is our “farm to fork” food safety management philosophy. We monitor every step of production to maintain quality, traceability, and transparency. We guarantee every product is safe and of the highest quality.
Vertical Upstream Management
To ensure we use agricultural and marine-sourced ingredients of the highest quality, we use “vertical raw material control” to manage our key raw materials suppliers. We send our dedicated quality controllers to provide training to the farmers as well as oversee the production process to ensure proper use of pest control measures, pesticides, fertilisation and harvesting methods, thus avoiding any pollution or safety problems.
