Agreement between GMP+ International and AMA-Marketing

It concerns audits for the scopes of production of compound feed and feed materials, trade, storage and transshipment, as well as road, ship and rail transport of feedstuff.

The aim of this agreement is to ensure higher quality and safety throughout the entire feedstuff supply chain in a transparent manner. Participating companies benefit from the recognition not only because of a free movement of goods, but also of better communication between the companies of the respective feed safety schemes.

The conclusion of the mutual recognition is an example of good cooperation within the feed safety chain. Good communication will continue to be valued in the future in order to be able to respond quickly and jointly take actions in possible crises situations.
