PME+
This label marks the FEEF (Federation of Enterprises and Entrepreneurs of France) ongoing commitment regarding the reclamation of the SME roles in the national economy, through the improvement of their relationships with the mass distribution and the promotion of their brands and products towards the consumers.
This is not a new product label but a corporate label. The PME + label values an eco-conscious entrepreneurial approach, leading to the development of a corporate citizen.
ISO 14 001
ISO standard 14001 is part of the ISO 14000 family standards, designed to promote and supervise an environmental management process. This standard is for all kinds of organisation (business, organization, public service…) keen to implement a production system, a management system as well as an operating system, which integrate a dynamic perspective to control environmental impacts.
IFS et BRC
The IFS and BRC certifications are two standards audit, put in place by the mass distribution to manage the delegation of their suppliers’ audits to third party organization in order to ensure the safety of food and supervise the product manufacturers’ quality level for the private label and/or best price products.
The IFS and BRC certifications were created to:
- Provide healthy products to consumers
- Ensure food safety to the retailer
- Meet the requirements of the Community legislation regarding hygiene.
AB et Eurofeuille
The Organic Farming (AB) and Organic Farming Europe certifications refer to all the products that are from French (for the AB certification) and European (for the Organic farming Europe label) organic agriculture. The label AB was the first to be created in 1985 and the European label dates back to 2009. Since the implementation of the latter, the conditions of the AB label had aligned themselves to the ones of the European in order to simplify the regulations and provide the best guidance to consumers.
The AB and EU certified organic food label guarantee that at least 95% of the product components are from organic farming that respect the EU regulation, that the production method is respectful of the environment, the biodiversity, and the animal welfare; they ensure the absence of synthetic chemicals, of GMO (adventitious traces of GMO are tolerated up to 0.9%) and they attest that the product comes directly from the producer-farmer in a sealed packaging.
