Quality Assurance
Gourmania operates a fully accredited HACCP facility. We follow stringent QA, hygiene and compliance procedures.
Our facility is periodically audited by regulatory bodies, independent authorities and some customers. We can develop customer-specific QA protocols to address additional requirements of a country/regulatory body (e.g. metal detection of finished products).
To ensure our Food Safety performance goes beyond that of regulatory standards, Gourmania conducts a significant amount inhouse and laboratory testing of our food products and environment. Our external product testing is conducted by third party, NATA-accredited laboratories.
Environmental Footprint
Running a responsible and sustainable business is something we take seriously at Gourmania.
A few steps we’re taking:
- Reducing our footprint – Gourmania has a ‘Buy’ local policy. We work closely with many WA/ Australian suppliers of raw materials, products and services to help reduce our carbon footprint.
- Sustainability – Our solar power system currently generates around 20% of our total energy needs. Our facility has energy efficient and sensor lighting.
- Reducing water usage – The installation of water flow meters helps conserve the amount of water used within our facility. Around our facility, we have planted a low-water consumption, native Australian garden.
- Recycling – Gourmania is adopting practices to help us meet the 2025 National Environment Protection Council of Australia targets around packaging recyclability.
- Waste management – Gourmania separates its waste for recycling and to help reduce landfill.
