Our detailed reports help clients maintain supplier reliability, reduce food recalls, and uphold the highest standards of food safety and quality.

Detailed Food Inspection Process

  • Refrigeration and Microclimate Control: We begin by reviewing the refrigerator journal and examining the transportation microclimate control systems to confirm that optimal conditions were maintained throughout the journey.

  • Voyage Information Gathering: We gather thorough details about the voyage to identify any potential risks that could have affected the cargo during transit.

  • Cooling System Status: Before discharge, our inspectors assess the cooling system to verify it is operating correctly.

  • Temperature Measurement: We take temperature readings when hatch covers are opened and continue to monitor throughout the discharge process to maintain consistency.

  • Thermograph Analysis: Our team collects and interprets thermographs installed by the supplier during dispatch, providing a clear picture of temperature management during transport.

  • Cargo Condition Control: Throughout the discharge, we monitor the overall condition of the cargo to ensure it meets the agreed quality standards.

  • Representative Sample Selection: We select a representative sample from each batch and conduct a detailed quality check to verify it aligns with client specifications.

  • Letters of Protest: If any issues arise that could lead to client losses, we promptly draft letters of protest to document these concerns.

  • Results Analysis and Reporting: After the inspection, we analyse the findings and produce a detailed survey report, including photographic evidence and a thorough written summary.
