Eurofins Food Safety Systems (EFSS) and Orion Assessment Services partner to expand auditing and certification services throughout Canada.
"Orion Assessment Services expressed interest in being able to provide certification services in the food industry under our accreditation to Canada and other parts of the world and we are happy to partner with them in this endeavor," said Gary Smith, Director of Eurofins Food Safety Systems.
The partnership will allow Eurofins to broaden their BRC Global Standards and GFSI scheme auditing resource base and provide them additional expertise in BRC to utilize. It will also allow Orion Assessment Services to operate under the Eurofins accreditation for BRC, SQF and FSSC 22000 schemes.
Orion Assessment Services currently offers services for the Gluten Free Certification program, GMP and HACCP audits, as well as gap assessments across North America.
As a certification body, this collaboration will enhance the standards currently offered through Orion Assessment Services' accreditation for ISO 17065 and ISO 17021, as well as offering brand new opportunities in the various GFSI schemes, for both existing and new clients internationally.
