Transfer of Technology and Audit Preparedness

We accompany groups seeking to enter the ready-to-use food (RUF) or Super Cereal markets, as well as those seeking to scale-up or optimize existing systems or processes. We strive to achieve a reorientation of all aspects of the supply chain that is more centered on those affected by crisis and are well positioned to support producers of both specialty foods and non-food items operating in countries or regions affected by crisis in adhering to the increasingly stringent due diligence standards and specifications required by the main buyers of their products.
