Tips for a stress-free journey to Non-GMO Project certification
Finally, we'll leave you with some tips for firms considering going through the Non-GMO Project certification process from Sandy Kepler, CEO of Foodchain ID (part of the Global ID Group) and lead technical advisor and program administrator for the Project’s product verification program.
- Pace yourself: Going through the certification process requires a level of documentation that's never been required before, so opt for a staged enrollment.
- Keep consumers informed: Tell customers what you are doing if you can't certify all your products at once, explain that you are on a journey...
- Plan ahead: When you vet new vendors, include a non-GMO compliance evaluation.
