The Grocers Supply Company, in partnership with the Federated Group and Topco, offers an extensive Private Brands program, based on providing excellent quality products in a wide range of categories. Rigorous standards are in place to ensure that high quality is maintained throughout the entire production process, from the raw ingredient stage to the store shelf. The process also allows for consumer feedback directly through contact information present on all packages.
Our Quality Assurance department requires third party food safety plant audits from all manufacturers to ensure that the production facilities meet the highest HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) and USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) standards for cleanliness, safety and manufacturing procedures. After the initial approval, third party food safety plant audits are required to be updated and submitted annually to ensure that standards are upheld.
Quality Assurance thoroughly tests Private Brands products to ensure that the ingredients and the finished product meet or exceed the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and/or USDA standards. On a routine basis, the Parade and Better Valu products are selected from the store shelves and evaluated by Federated Quality Assurance to ensure that the original quality standards are maintained.
With quality in the forefront for our Private Brands, Grocers Supply utilizes the combined volume created by our customers to reduce expenses in packaging and distribution. This savings allows our retailers to sell a high quality product at a lower price than the equivalent national brand. You and your family can feel comfortable enjoying the quality of our private brands while also benefiting from the cost savings.
