Distribution and import of organic products
Trust at every stage of the supply.
Certification for traders and importers who work with organic products and want to ensure traceability and conformity with the applicable requirements.
An organic product has a path. That path needs to be traceable.
Trade in organic products requires attention not only to the product itself, but also to the activities through which it is stored, distributed and placed on the market.
GreenBioCert provides control and certification of activities related to the trade and distribution of organic products, including import from third countries, under the applicable European and national legislation.
The service is for operators whose activity includes distribution or placing on the market, storage and import of organic products — according to the specific scope of their activity.
