Selection and evaluation criteria

We choose our suppliers based on sustainability criteria, considering the type of material, the complexity of the supply, and relevance in terms of food safety.

We evaluate their experience, analyze and test samples, verify their background with other companies in the same industry, as well as the relevant certifications and credentials.

For significant purchases, we use the SAP ARIBA platform, an international standard that ensures transparency and traceability in tenders, quotations and purchase allocation processes. Additionally, we achieve agility and measurable economic results.

Our Supplier Evaluation Policy sets up an annual assessment schedule to be performed by the Procurement and Quality Assurance Department in order to encourage ongoing improvement in supplier operations.

Our team of internal auditors verifies issues such as good practices, process control, quality and safety programs, certifications, safety and health and compliance with delivery deadlines, requiring a reliable and auditable traceability system to track the source, origin, and production conditions of the raw materials and supplies we purchase.
