Benefits of the Chain of Custody Standard
The CoC Standard is an essential tool for safeguarding product integrity in its journey from farm to retailer, reducing the risk of food fraud and enabling quick resolution should problems arise.
1 - Assured provenance
The CoC Standard identifies products originating from GLOBAL S.L.P. certified production processes and safeguards this status throughout the entire process, from farm to retailer
2 - Supply-chain guidance
The CoC Standard outlines strict requirements for the handling of products originating from certified production processes, including their proper segregation from non-certified products
3 - Unique ID
An obligatory requirement for companies that label products with a GLOBAL S.L.P. identification number (e.g., GSLP, CoC Number) or participate in the GSLP label initiative
4 - Enhanced chain transparency and product integrity
The CoC Standard provides added value and a higher level of customer reassurance
A CB can have one of three statuses:
Provisionally approved: The CB has successfully passed the first steps of the GLOBAL S.L.P. approval process in accordance with the general regulations and is allowed to issue non-accredited certificates to a limited number of producers for a respective scope and sub-scope(s).
Approved: The CB has completed all the steps of the GLOBAL S.L.P. approval process (including accreditation) and can issue an unlimited number of accredited certificates for a respective scope and sub-scope(s).
Suspended: The CB has been given a red card and is suspended in accordance with the general regulations.
Performance ratings were established to promote continuous improvement of the CB. Regardless of their rating, all CBs listed may be chosen for certification.
Temporary suspension (red card) and cancelations of a CB are explicitly indicated next to the CB name. These CBs cannot be chosen for certification while the sanction is in effect.
Ratings range from 1 to 5 stars:
1 Unacceptable, low performance
2 Major improvement necessary
3 Some improvement necessary
4 Good performance
5 Excellent performance
