GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) does not certify plants: it recognizes certification programs that meet its requirements, such as SQF and BRCGS. A GFSI-recognized certificate is accepted by many buyers, which reduces the number of separate audits you face, though some customers still run their own. That is why many retailers and distributors ask their suppliers for one.
