For as long as stories have been told, farmers have supplied fresh and delicious pork to serve as ordinary meals and for special celebrations.
But one day, everything changed…
As the world population grew, so did the demand for pork.
Pork consumption increased, as did consumers’ demand for animal welfare and food safety.
To assist the pork supply chain in meeting the growing demand for food safety, South African Pork Producers developed a farm assurance system to address best practices throughout the pork value chain, from the farm to the consumer.
SAPPO’s Farm Assured accreditation is a commitment to the consumer that South African farmers, processors and retailers, all adopt best practices and processes that comply with global standards to ensure safe, fresh and affordable pork.
