Retailer Compliance

Leading food and beverage retailers, such as M&S, ASDA, Sainsbury’s and Tesco’s require manufacturers, co-packers and packhouses (packaging suppliers) to meet their food safety requirements, which include the control of date codes and packaging verification. Automated date code and packaging verification have always featured as part of these standards.

Packaging suppliers wishing to supply to leading retailers must demonstrate that they have an appropriate automated system in place. They must provide evidence of its use and application in the manufacture of their products.
