At Phoenix, food safety and quality are not simply compliance requirements, they are the foundation of every product we bottle and pack.
For brands looking to partner with a specialist contract bottler, certification matters. That’s why we operate to the globally recognised BRCGS Food Safety Standard, one of the most respected and rigorous food safety certification programmes in the world.
BRCGS provides a comprehensive framework covering food safety, legality, integrity and product quality, giving our customers total confidence that their product is in safe hands.
Championing BRCGS Since 2004
Phoenix has proudly operated to the BRCGS standard since 2004. For over two decades, it has shaped our production environment, quality management systems and day-to-day operations.
For our contract packing customers, this means:
- Fully documented and traceable processes
- Robust supplier approval procedures
- Strict raw material controls
- Production consistency at scale
- Full product traceability from intake to dispatch
- Continuous improvement embedded into operations
BRCGS is not just a certificate on display, it drives our culture. Every batch we produce reflects the discipline and structure that the standard demands.
If you are launching a new speciality oil, scaling an existing brand, or seeking a more reliable co-packing partner, operational discipline is critical. We understand that your brand reputation depends on it.
Retaining Our AA* Grade – February 2026
Following our most recent audit in February 2026, we are delighted to have once again retained the highest possible rating: AA*. And the * really matters.
The star confirms that our audit was conducted on an unannounced basis. In simple terms, we didn’t know the auditor was coming.
This demonstrates something far more powerful than passing a scheduled inspection, it proves we are audit-ready every single day.
For our customers, that means:
- No “audit prep mode”
- No temporary standards
- No shortcuts
- Just consistent, compliant, high-quality production at all times
