The objective of this page is to explain why CyD is one of the most reliable and sustainable stone fruit
exporters of the Southern hemisphere.
All the growers have shares in CyD or have family members within the business .
The CyD team and also the managers of the farms and facilities have been working together for many
years.
We are devoted to long term business and partnerships to achieve this goal, and we are fanatical about
delivering safe, innovative and delicious fruit.
To achieve the first objective all the facilities have as a minimum BRC certifications and the farms all
have Global Gap certification.
Our traceability process can identify to the block of the farm and line in the pack house.
We have successfully managed to work throughout the pandemic in 2020, and we have never stopped.
Please find in the following description about BRC, Global Gap and a little abstract about Covid.
The British Retail Consortium (BRC) is a trade association for the UK food retail
industry created in 1992. The BRC has published standards for best practices for the food and
manufacturing industries for two decades, and also publishes the On-Pack recycling standards for the UK.
The BRC Global Food standard has been in existence since 1998, and in 2000 was the first food safety
standard to be recognized by the GFSI organization, which means the standard meets their "benchmark"
criteria for acceptance. The standard is designed as a "total quality management" program, and includes
both food safety requirements and quality requirements which food manufacturers must meet in order to be
certified".

Covid:
The main way to avoid the problems and spread of the Covid is to assume all the people including
ourselves have the disease.
We have spent the resource required and continue to use masks when required, wash hands more often and
maintain physical distance.
All the facilities and farms have the resources to cope with these additional requirements and
regulations.
