Sonneveld has a good score in the unannounced AIB audit
Sonneveld has passed the annual unannounced AIB audit with flying colours. Sonneveld sees its voluntary participation with the AIB programme as an extra stimulus for improving its work processes and food safety. ‘The periodic AIB audits instantly result in the production floor employees being more involved and motivated. We are now one of the very few companies to have gained the BRC A* status (unannounced, passed in April 201)), as well as the AIB ‘unannounced Recognition of Accomplishment’ status. This confirms the high quality level we are aiming for.’, according to Maarten Boonstra, Quality Assurance and Care Manager.

Sonneveld has been participating with the American Institute of Baking (AIB)’s ‘Food Safety Audit’ system since 2007.
