We strive to achieve the highest standards of excellence in everything we do - from how we raise our animals to the safety and quality of the meat and poultry we produce. Food safety has always been an important focus for our business, and now we are proud to announce that we are taking our food safety standards to an even higher level through pursuit of BRC certification.
For years, you have trusted Joyce Farms to provide safe and high quality meat and poultry products. Our USDA-inspected plant in Winston Salem, North Carolina has multiple HACCP plans in place to ensure safe practices, and for 20 years we have continually received high marks on third party GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) audits. Now, we are thrilled to have achieved BRC Start! Certification - the first step toward our goal of becoming fully BRC certified.
The BRC is one of the few food safety and quality standards benchmarked by the GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative), which sets a global standard for food safety and quality. BRC certification is only awarded to those who have truly embraced a top-to-bottom food safety culture and approach throughout their company.
We always want to offer our customers the very best. We searched the world for the best animal genetics for our heritage program. We raise our heritage animals using the best farming practices through regenerative agriculture, and according to the best animal welfare standards through GAP Global Animal Partnership. The BRC is what we believe to be the best food safety certification in the world, and we look forward to offering you an even deeper level of trust in our products through this certification.
