Pecan Deluxe Candy Gets AA Grade BRC

Double-A

We recently received a much-sought after double-A Grade from the British Retail Consortium (BRC). Generally acknowledged as technically one of the toughest assessments to meet, the BRC Global Standard for Food Safety covers a broad spectrum ranging from Quality Management Systems to evidence of continual improvement.

Company values

We believe the introduction of a new set of company values consolidating the guiding principles and fundamental beliefs of Pecan Deluxe Candy Europe, has played a key role in this result. It is a ringing endorsement of the efforts and commitment made by every member of the team to meet the company’s core principles – Quality First, Operate Safely, Work Together, Deliver, Family, Outside the Box, Fun and Fair.

“The auditor commented that we make high quality and safe products in our facility and was impressed that the procedures and training we demonstrated are embedded into our culture. We’re very proud of our team for achieving a BRC AA Grade” Graham Kingston, Pecan Deluxe Candy EMEA managing director.

Thanks to extremely limited options for eating out during the pandemic, more and more consumers have been seeking to satisfy cravings with moments of indulgence in the food retail aisles, and so demand for ready-made premium foods has rocketed.  We are responding to that demand by creating inventive, sweet ingredients such as fudges, bakery items and pralines – to name just a few – in a safe and high-quality working environment, reflected by the BRC AA Grade.
