We are Committed to Food Safety
At Eatmore Sprouts, we take food safety very seriously. We continue to invest our time, energy, finances, and personal commitment into the operation and ongoing improvement of our Food Safety Plan.
Our Food Safety Plan was created based on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s (CFIA) Code of Practice for the Hygienic Production of Sprouted Seeds and the Food Safety Guidance for Sprout Manufacturers: First Edition.
We are routinely inspected by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, the Vancouver Island Health Authority, the Pacific Agricultural Society, and various third party auditors.
Every food commodity has its own particular areas where special attention is required for production of safe foods for the consumer. In the case of sprouts, that means starting with the seeds themselves.
We buy only certified organic seeds from approved suppliers and inspect every bag of seeds prior to allowing usage in our facility. Seed inspection includes bacterial pathogen testing at a certified third party laboratory. We only use seeds that are of suitable quality and we control the handling and process parameters right through to deliver consistent quality to our valued customers.
