The two sets of provisions will work together to support improved business transactions within the grocery industry. The Code will provide negotiating principles and guidance that will increase transparency and predictability for the entire Grocery sector, while the FVDRC provides a fair and ethical trading system for the fruit and vegetable supply chain which addresses all types of fresh fruit and vegetable related disputes, including product quality or condition at destination, as well as payment issues that may occur between members internationally and domestically. The two organizations will work together to help avoid any confusion between the two sets of trading rules and/or provisions. Working together, these processes will complement each other to improve predictability for business transactions and strengthen the Canadian grocery sector.   Companies importing and trading fresh fruit and vegetables interprovincially are required by Canadian federal regulation to hold a FVDRC membership and are bound by the bylaws and trading rules outlined there-in. The Code will support but not supersede the DRC rules unless the Code provisions sit outside the scope of the FVDRC jurisdiction.
