Quality Assurance

Quality Assurance and Food Safety Precautions

Quality Assurance, from Certified Seed and variety selection to our compliance with the PrimusGFS Ranch and GMP Audits are vital. PrimusGFS is a Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) benchmarked audit scheme which covers Global GAP and GMP as well as Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS).  All farm locations are audited yearly for both.  All locations are FDA Certified. Food safety is crucial to our reputation at Campbell Farms.

Our use of a HAACP program includes the trace-back enablement system.  All potatoes are dated and source coded, enabling trace back to the exact field in which the potatoes were grown.  The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) is also implemented at all locations.

Food Safety

You deserve the best potatoes from a clean source.

The bedrock of food safety is systems, monitoring and continual improvement. Campbell Farms reviews, monitors and improves food safety standards on a daily basis. Consumers can relax knowing the food they consume is sourced from a farm committed to fresh & healthy produce.

Our assurance is traceable. Know the seed origin, what happened in the growing field, when it was harvested and where it traveled to reach the shelf of purchase. This traceability is our pledge to you.

Certified Inspections. Our farms are inspected by PrimusGFS. PrimusGFS is a Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) fully recognized audit scheme covering both Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) scopes, as well as Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS).

Measurable Benchmarks. The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) creates the food safety benchmark & framework for our farm. They recognize the authority of the PrimusGFS audit scheme, helping us move closer to global food safety harmonization.

Your safety matters to us.
