AKFP assures safety with AIB-certified warehouses

American Key Food Products has announced that the company has moved all warehousing for its food ingredient offerings to AIB-certified public warehouses in the U.S. Through this change, AKFP ensures to its food industry customers that the company’s products are not only quality certified, but also handled by quality logistics providers.

“Today’s standards in food quality and safety require strict performance criteria throughout the supply chain and ensure effective traceability measures,” says Mel Festejo, AKFP COO. “As more companies are adopting food quality and safety standards based on the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), responsible suppliers are taking matching initiatives to be aligned with the more demanding expectations of its customers.”

AKFP maintains inventories of its potato and tapioca starch products, as well as its premium cassava flour in various strategic locations throughout the country. These are in Edison, N.J.; Carol Stream, Ill.; Baltimore, Md.; Kent, Wash.; Clackamas, Ore.; Modesto, Calif.; Carson, Calif.; Oakland, Calif.; and Dallas Texas.
