Quality and Food Safety
Growing healthy quality produce takes a commitment and when it comes to food safety, we at Emeril's Gourmet Produce take matters seriously. Our commitment to quality and food safety is a value that is never compromised.
From the field to the final package, our focus is on creating safeguards so that you receive only the highest quality product. To that end, our farming, harvesting and packing is intertwined with certified experts and licensed inspectors, ensuring that the best products are always complimented by equally high standards in farming, processing, sanitation and handling.
Our operation surpasses all field sanitation requirements and initiatives set forth by state and federal guidelines. Frequent 3rd party audits compliment and confirm regular in-house reviews. We have adopted the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) and conduct regular food safety analysis of our farms, plants and environments.
