At ASI, we’re here to help you get certified to the SQF Food Safety Codes that fit your business—simple, clear, and backed by trusted accreditation.
1. Register Your Site: Start by signing up on the SQFI Assessment Database—this gets your site in the system.
2. Pick Your SQF Lead: Choose someone on your team to be your SQF Practitioner—they’ll lead the charge on food safety.
3. Define Your Scope: Figure out which parts of your business the certification will cover and which SQF codes apply.
4. Build Your System: Put together clear, organized documentation for how your food safety and quality systems work.
5. Put It Into Action: Make sure everything in your plan is actually being done on the floor—consistently.
6. Choose a Certifier: Pick an accredited certification body (like ASI!) to conduct your audit.
7. Do a Trial Run (Optional): Want to catch issues early? A pre-assessment audit is a great way to prepare before the real thing.
Show You’re Serious About Safety: SQF certification proves your commitment to producing safe, high-quality food—something customers and partners value.
Open Retail Doors: Many major retailers require SQF certification, and we help you meet those expectations with ease.
Lower Your Risk: With ASI guiding you through SQF’s rigorous standards, you’ll reduce the risk of recalls and food safety issues.
Boost Your Brand: Certification builds trust and credibility, making your business stand out to buyers and consumers alike.
Be Recognized Worldwide: SQF is globally respected, helping you grow beyond local markets and into international ones.
Keep Getting Better: The process encourages ongoing improvement—because food safety is never “one and done.”
Fewer Audits, Less Hassle: One SQF certification can satisfy multiple buyer requirements, helping reduce duplicate audits (and save money).
