Callaway Industrial places an emphasis on assisting our food product manufacturing customers in meeting the high standards of the GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) The Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) is coordinated by The Food Business Forum CIES. This forum is a global food network made up of approximately 400 retailers and manufacturers worldwide.
GFSI does not certify organizations, but has determined which food safety certifications it accepts or recognizes. These are called GFSI Benchmarked Standards.
