GMP+ International
International certification
In 1992, the Dutch feed industry initiated the GMP+ Feed Certification Program in response to several more and less serious incidents with contamination in feed materials. Although GMP+ started as a national initiative, it has developed into an international program managed by GMP+ International in collaboration with various international stakeholders. The two modules of the certification system are: GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance has a focus on feed safety and GMP + Feed Responsibility Assurance (FRA) has a focus on sustainable feed. More than 20,000 companies have been certified for GMP+ by now.
GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance (FSA) and GMP+ Feed Responsibility Assurance (FRA)
The GMP+ Feed Safety Assurance (FSA) module has been developed to guarantee the safety of feed and to reassure the consumer by guaranteeing that feed has been produced, processed, traded, stored and transported in a responsible manner. The GMP+ Feed Responsibility Assurance (FRA) module strives for responsible and sustainable entrepreneurship. Companies that apply Feed Responsibility Assurance (FRA) focus on the consequences of their actions for people and the planet, in addition to making a profit.
