Fischer Farms achieves top food safety accreditation with AA BRCGS certification
Fischer Farms, the firm behind one of the world’s largest vertical farms, is delighted to announce that it has successfully passed its first BRC audit, achieving AA – the highest possible grade.
Awarded by BRCGS (Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standards), the AA grade is a globally recognised benchmark for food safety and quality, demonstrating that Fischer Farms operates to the highest levels of safety, traceability, and compliance.
Fischer Farms currently grows leafy greens and herbs at its 4-acre farm in Norwich, supplying a range of retailers and foodservice providers around the UK. This latest milestone is a significant achievement for the business and stands as a testament to the hard work, attention to detail, and dedication of the entire Fischer Farms team.
Chris Kirke, CEO of Fischer Farms said: “Achieving AA standard in our first BRC audit is a fantastic milestone for us. It reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence and sets the foundation for further growth and partnerships with leading retailers and food service providers.”
The certification not only reinforces Fischer Farms’ commitment to delivering safe, high-quality, and sustainable produce but also enables the business to expand its reach, offering its innovative vertically farmed produce to even more customers across the UK and beyond.
As Fischer Farms leads the way in controlled environment agriculture, this achievement underscores its impact on creating a food system that is safe, resilient, and sustainable.
