Today, food quality and safety is a leading national security concern. But it’s always been top priority at Gilroy Foods. We know that our customers’ reputations rest on the purity and wholesomeness of the ingredients they put into their products, and we’ve staked our own reputation on providing those customers the quality and reassurance that when they work with Gilroy Foods, they work with the best.

It all starts with the ingredients themselves. We know intimately the sources for all our products, and we’ll gladly provide traceable, verifiable records of your order’s paths from the moment of harvest to their reception at your loading dock. Along the way, we enforce the strictest safety and HAACP procedures, both in the field—where we demand careful stewardship of the land and sound farming practices—and in our plants, where the latest technology and rigorously controlled systems shepherd your ingredients through processing.

But don’t just take our word for it.

  • The Micro and Analytical Insights Group uses leading-edge techniques to measure and ensure ingredient quality and safety compliance.
  • Sales and technical teams will work with you to establish the purchasing and quality specifications that put your quality and safety concerns at the fore—be they microbial, chemical, contamination, or adulteration.
  • We’ve got the resources of our Chief Regulatory Officer and Office of Food Safety at our back, so it’s no wonder we repeatedly set the standards for food safety achievement.
  • Applied customer-driven audit process, conducted under the auspices of the Food Processors Association (FPA), is the industry’s leading, most stringent audit.
  • With an active presence in the American Spice Trade Association (ASTA), the American Dehydrated Onion & Garlic Association (ADOGA), and other industry organizations, we’re always a step ahead of the game.

Just like you, we know the importance of staying in control. That’s why we’ve made unimpeachable food quality and safety standards our highest focus. Because you’re accountable to your customers, we’re committed to being accountable to you.
