Food Safety At DNO, we take food safety very seriously. We are FSMA compliant and GFSI certified. The following is a little more about how we keep our fresh cut products safe: Supplier Approval Program Before We Buy. As part of FSMA and GFSI compliancy, we request approval documentation from any new supplier. At a minimum, we require a third-party audit report, signed letter of guarantee, HACCP plan, and certificate of insurance, but depending on the supplier we may require more. Each potential new supplier is vetted by our Quality Assurance and Food Safety team before the first purchase order. Continued Business. We routinely request updated documentation from our suppliers to ensure that our suppliers are keeping up to date with their food safety procedures. Helping Small Farmers. We recognize the challenges that come with maintaining a food safety program and are happy to help our valued small farmers who lack the resources. We are happy to help consult with the farms as well as direct them to the right resources to get them in compliance. Want to become a supplier?
