QS Quality Scheme for Food

Quality assurance for food products - from field to fork.

Promote food safety, good agricultural practices and animal welfare – from farm to fork.

Quality and safety are two of the most important considerations when it comes to our food, and these are the guiding principles behind the development of the QS quality assurance scheme.

What is the QS Quality Scheme for Food?

Developed in Germany as a farm to fork quality and safety food program, the QS Quality Scheme for Food is now recognized internationally and its distinctive quality mark can be found on many food products around the world. It covers a wide range of fresh food products, from meat and meat products to fruit, vegetables and potatoes.

The QS assurance program requires a clear and transparent lifecycle for food products. These are regulated and controlled through the use of good agricultural practices and food safety guidelines. Producers must adhere to robust requirements relating to, amongst others, animal welfare, traceability and hygiene.

Supply chains engaging in the QS assurance program are inspected by approved and accredited certification bodies to ensure compliance.
