Who is GMP+ for?
GMP+ (Good Manufacturing Practice+) is an international feed safety scheme for the animal feed chain, managed by GMP+ International. It covers practically every link in the feed chain, not just manufacturers:
- Compound feed manufacturers
- Producers and traders of feed materials
- Storage and transhipment companies handling feed materials or feed
- Transport companies carrying products for animal feed
- Laboratories and other services linked to the feed chain
- Companies that export to markets where GMP+ is a common requirement (e.g. the Netherlands, Belgium)
How we help you get there
Our support covers the whole journey, from the first assessment to the day of the certification audit:
- 1
Initial assessment
We review your activity, your facilities and your current processes to understand which GMP+ scope applies to you according to your role in the chain (production, trade, storage, transport…) and where you're starting from.
- 2
Gap analysis
We compare your current situation against the requirements of the GMP+ scheme and identify what's missing: documentation, controls, analysis, supplier requirements, traceability and so on.
- 3
Implementing the documented system
We help you build or adapt your management system: procedures, records, a feed HACCP plan, specifications, supplier control and the rest of the required documentation.
- 4
Team training
We train the staff involved so they understand the system, can maintain it day to day and can respond confidently during the audit.
- 5
Audit preparation
We run a mock internal audit to spot weak points before the certification body does, and close out any outstanding nonconformities.
- 6
Support during the audit
We support you on the day of the audit with the accredited certification body, and with handling any nonconformities that arise, through to award of the certificate.
Duvalis Consulting advises and prepares your company throughout the process. The final certificate is issued by an accredited, independent certification body, following its own audit. Duvalis Consulting is not a certification body and does not issue certificates.
Benefits of achieving certification
Access to clients and markets that require GMP+
Many compound feed manufacturers, traders and international buyers only work with GMP+-certified suppliers, especially in northern Europe.
A common requirement for exporting
GMP+ is a recognised benchmark in the international trade of feed materials and feed, and it makes trading relationships outside Spain easier.
Lower risk in the animal feed chain
A well-implemented GMP+ system reduces the risk of contamination, improves traceability and helps catch problems before they reach the animal.
Confidence for your clients and trading partners
Holding GMP+ signals professionalism and a commitment to feed safety across your whole supply chain.
