Quality Management Requirements to agricultural products change, we now need GlobalGAP certification. We have started taking the necessary steps for obtaining certification. To comply with GlobalGAP requirements the products need to be sorted, packaged and stored. In order to better comply with the supermarket requirements the deliveries should be consistent over a longer period of time. Unfortunately, currently our products are sold directly from the field.
