The Eleven Rivers® Program was established to develop and align participants to deliver the highest fresh produce reliability, based on:
- Most demanding buyers’ requirements to support its offering
- Business Practices guidelines of global commercial organizations
- Tomato metrics format for a better understanding in the market
- Regulatory agencies’ politics, norms and scopes
- Production-to-distribution food safety
- Point-to-point traceability
- Risk reduction management
- Process control systems
- Labor, social and ecological responsibility
Each participating production unit compliance is supported by a seasonal integral certification and weekly verifications, both executed by independent auditing organizations, certified and authorized by SENASICA to operate under the Eleven Rivers® Regulatory Scheme.
SENASICA’s recognition of the Eleven Rivers® Regulatory Scheme, is a step towards the harmonization of standards and other benchmarking processes with GFSI and GlobalGAP.
This recognition also supports that Eleven Rivers is continuously delivering the highest reliability to the market and verifying what the final client cannot see, from crop to packaging, workers housing and transportation to distribution centers.
