British Retail Consortium Standards- BRC - 2011 : The four BRC Global Standards are: GLOBAL STANDARD FOR FOOD SAFETY, GLOBAL STANDARD FOR PACKAGING & PACKAGING MATERIALS, GLOBAL STANDARD FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS, GLOBAL STANDARD FOR STORAGE & DISTRIBUTION

The British Retail Consortium (BRC) is the leading trade association representing all retailers, from large
multiples to independents. The BRC’s Global Standards support retailers and suppliers by providing a
leading global product safety and quality certification programme.

The BRC Global Standards are a suite of four industry-leading Technical Standards that specify requirements to be met by an organisation to enable the production, packaging, storage and distribution of safe food and consumer products. Originally developed in response to the needs of UK members of the British Retail Consortium, the Standards have gained usage world-wide and are specified by growing numbers of retailers and branded manufacturers in the EU, North America and further afield.

The Standards provide a way for retailers to satisfy themselves, their customers and the enforcement authorities that products are being sourced from sites capable of consistently producing safe, legal products of the required quality.They do not replace the need for testing or inspection activities relating to individual products but they do include a check of the product conformity measures used on the site.

For producers of products, meeting the Standards allows them to demonstrate that they comply with industry requirements. They have the additional leverage of being listed on a secure database of certificated suppliers.

Certification to the BRC Standards also reduces the need for duplication of audits from a number of retailers. The site owns the audit report and can decide which retailers are able to view the audit details. The detailed audit report can be viewed via the database by those retailers selected by the supplier.

The four BRC Global Standards are:

- GLOBAL STANDARD FOR FOOD SAFETY
- GLOBAL STANDARD FOR PACKAGING & PACKAGING MATERIALS
- GLOBAL STANDARD FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS
- GLOBAL STANDARD FOR STORAGE & DISTRIBUTION

The BRC has also produced a series of Best Practice and Standard Specific Guidelines to accompany the BRC Global Standards. It is vital for retailers and brand owners to have confidence in their suppliers and equally important for suppliers to demonstrate the quality, safety and legality of their products and services to retailers. The BRC's range of Guidelines enables both retailers and suppliers to achieve their aim by providing these simple 'how to' guides to assist companies to meet the relevant BRC Global Standards requirements.
