When your quality team shortlists a new ingredient supplier, the first question is rarely about price. It is about risk. Can this supplier pass our audit? Will the documentation hold up? A BRCGS-certified food ingredients supplier answers those questions before the first sample ships.

SALESWAVE supplies freeze-dried fruits, vegetables, natural honey, and dried plums from BRCGS Grade A+ and IFS Food-certified production, with full batch documentation for food manufacturers across the EU, UK, Ukraine, and GCC.

What does BRCGS certification mean for your sourcing

BRCGS Global Standard Food Safety is one of the most widely recognised GFSI benchmarks. For a buyer, it means the production of every ingredient operates under audited HACCP-based food safety management, with documented traceability, allergen controls, site hygiene standards, and recall procedures. Grade A+ is awarded after an unannounced audit, the most demanding audit format available under the scheme.

In practice, this shortens your supplier qualification process. Instead of auditing an unknown site from scratch, your quality team reviews current certificates and batch documents that already follow a GFSI-recognised framework.

Documentation you receive with every order

Each delivery is supported by a technical data sheet and a certificate of analysis confirming moisture, fraction and microbiological purity. Full batch traceability lets you map every lot back through the supply chain. Specifications are available on request before you order, so your team can review parameters at the shortlisting stage.

Beyond BRCGS: the full certification stack

Alongside BRCGS and IFS Food, Kosher-certified and Gluten-free-certified options are available. Organic (EU BIO) ingredients are produced to order, subject to raw material availability, with a 50 kg MOQ. This lets you cover retailer requirements and label claims from a single sourcing relationship.

How to qualify us as your supplier

Start small. Request free samples, 3 SKUs of 30 g each, and run bench trials. Review the technical documentation with your quality team. Then place a pilot order of just 2 kg per SKU. Our guide on piloting a new freeze-dried ingredient supplier walks through the full process step by step.
