What to verify before you order
Most of the detail sits in the site's summary text rather than in certificates shown on the page, so the checks focus on documents:
- "BRCGS compliance" is not the same as BRCGS certification. Ask directly whether the site is certified; if so, get the site code and confirm it in the BRCGS Directory.
- For ISO 22000, ask for the certificate, the certification body and its accreditation, and check the scope covers dehydration, not only trading or packing.
- Confirm the Bhadara address on the FSSAI licence via FoSCoS, and ask whether onion and garlic are dried at that site.
- The range covers dehydrated product, fried onion, seed spices, sesame and herbal powders. Ask which are processed at its own plant and which are sourced and repacked, and which line will run your order.
- Ask for the Spices Board registration certificate and APEDA RCMC, which are relevant if you also buy cumin, coriander or sesame.
- For the US, ask for the FDA food facility registration number.
- Test a sealed lot sample at an NABL-accredited lab, with ethylene oxide included for spice and seed items.
