GAP (Good Agricultural Practices)

GLOBALG.A.P. is the certification that supermarket chains and premium importers require from fresh produce suppliers. If you grow mangoes, grapes, pomegranates, flowers, or aquaculture products for export, international buyers will ask for this before placing an order. It covers your soil and water quality, pesticide use, worker safety, and how you handle and pack your produce. We help farmers and farm cooperatives set up the documentation and pass the GLOBALG.A.P. audit.
