Agricola El Nazario takes microbiological samples from packing staff to ensure the quality of the product
Mocorito, Sinaloa – For Agricola El Nazario it is very important to follow good agricultural practices to ensure the quality and food safety of the products they sell, in keeping with their sense of responsibility to their customers and consumers, which is one of the company’s priorities.
For this reason, microbiological analyses are carried out periodically in the packing activities; on this occasion, microbiological samples were taken from the packing staff, although this is a common practice that also includes the production areas in the field and the shelter.
The analysis of equipment and machinery, as well as the analysis of staff’s hands, is an excellent way to know if the cleaning and sanitization of equipment and worker hygiene activities are meeting the established purposes.
Based on the Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOPs) implemented by Agricola El Nazario, it is validated that the control measures applied during the vegetable production, harvesting, and packaging process are effective in reducing contamination risks, validated with the scientific method.
These procedures comply with the Mexican regulation of SENASICA and COFEPRIS and the international standards endorsed by GFSI such as GlobalG.A.P. and PrimusGFS and the US-FSMA regulation.
For Agricola El Nazario, the safety of its consumers is paramount throughout its logistics chain, field, packaging, and export.
