netfood® Quality Expert

Access to our entire expert team. Collectively, we have 100+ years of quality management experience. We’ve seen — and solved a wide range of challenges.

Tailored to your needs. We don’t do “one-size-fits-all.” The content and scope of our service adapt to your company’s specific needs. We’re comfortable thinking beyond the traditional box. No “just in case” work. We’re focused on what actually moves the needle.

Cost-efficient. No need to recruit, train, or arrange holiday cover for an in-house expert. No resource bottlenecks even in peak periods. You pay only for the work delivered.

Always-on support. Our expert team is available and on hand as needed. During busy periods, that can mean daily work or on-site presence. In quieter times, a monthly service focused on HACCP team meetings may be sufficient. Wen required, our quality team’s deep expertise is always at your disposal.

Project-based service. You might need support for a plant expansion, a key person’s illness or parental leave, or the development of a new product type that absorbs most of your quality team’s time. With the netfood® Quality Specialist service, day-to-day operations keep running and product safety remains firmly under control despite the changes.

Client A had a strong product and offered to manufacture a private label version for an interested retail chain B. Retailer B was very interested, but required Client A to implement either a BRCGS Food or IFS Food management system. Doing this in house would likely have meant up to two years worth of work, hiring extra resources and in practice, missing the commercial opportunity.

By choosing Net-Foodlab Oy as a partner, Client A’s operational discipline and product food safety improved significantly. A new BRCGS Food Issue 9 system was certified in under a year, and Client A was able to start working with Retailer B already during the system build up.

Client B faced challenges in controlling allergen residues. A Net-Foodlab Oy quality specialist worked closely with them on work instructions, warehouse labeling, the development of allergen cleaning procedures, and allergen residue measurements. The improvements streamlined processes, significantly reduced the risk of allergen residues, and through validated cleaning it greatly strengthened allergen-control capability. On this basis, Client B was able to remove “may contain” statements from key product specifications, which opened up new markets for the products.
