FOOD SAFETY

In recent years, consumers have shown a growing interest in knowing where there food comes from and how it was produced.

At Bonita Europe, Food Safety has been a top agenda item since its foundation in 1966 . Quality management, traceability, residue monitoring, risk assessment and consumer relations are the five pillars on which our Bonita product is based.

OUR 5 PILLARS

On the farm, field inspectors ensure that fruit is harvested only when our quality standards are met. At the port of embarkation inspectors conduct quality evaluations prior to the loading of the vessel as well as at discharge in the European ports. All reports from our inspectors are communicated to the producers so this constant monitoring ensures that the best selection of fruit is available at all times.

Traceability ensures we monitor the Bonita product throughout the supply chain.
Our traceability system is compliant with the General food Law 178/2002.

At Bonita, residue monitoring is a constant process to ensure that all Bonita products fulfil the requirements of the MRL legislation (maximum residue level) required by the European Union

Each sample is tested through an at random GCMS/LCMS/IM screening, which are a accurate multi-residue tests

On a regular basis, risks are monitored in order to take immediate preventive action when required. Our Company Risk Assessment is further detailed in Crisis Management Guidelines

At Bonita, we take pride of our close consumer relations to assure we bring produce that meets the consumer's needs, if a Bonita product does not fulfill our customer's requirements, the Bonita Quality Team will immediately take appropriate action to satisfy the customer's needs.
