BRC AA STATUS RETAINED FOR FIFTH YEAR

We’re delighted to say that we have received BRC AA accreditation at our distribution centres for the fifth consecutive year.

It is the highest accolade offered by the well-respected, and well recognised industry organisation, British Retail Consortium.

“We are incredibly please to have retained AA status across the group and it was pleasing to be able to welcome assessors to site after the delay due to the pandemic,” said Graham White, Group Communications Director, Carlton Forest Group. “We have a fantastic team at all levels who are committed to upholding the high standards, and vision for success that the senior leadership team has.”

Achieving AA status means that Carlton Forest 3PL has attained success in all areas of its business operations. Most importantly, it has maintained those standards consistently since first achieving the status in 2017 and established those standards at its new sites too.

Graham concluded; “The achievement and retention of this well-respected industry accreditation plays a significant part in showcasing our commitment to the highest standards and this is reflected in all other elements of the business too. It is this commitment that has driven our recent growth and our standards and accreditations are a positive reflection for our growing and diverse customer portfolio.”

This highly regarded standard was developed by industry experts to secure the attainment and maintenance of high standards for product safety and operational management, supply chain for organisations involved in the storage and distribution, including wholesale activities, of food and non-food products.
