Choosing the right contract production partner can make or break the quality, consistency, and long-term success of your beverage brand. That’s why cGMP certification—Current Good Manufacturing Practices—is one of the strongest indicators of a safe, reliable, and high-quality production environment.
A brewery operating under a certified cGMP program follows rigorous standards set by global regulatory bodies to prevent contamination, protect product integrity, and ensure every batch meets strict safety and quality benchmarks.
For emerging and established brands alike, partnering with a cGMP certified facility isn’t just a compliance advantage—it’s a strategic edge that elevates your product in the eyes of distributors, retailers, and consumers.
What is a cGMP certification?
A cGMP audit rating from ASI Food Safety is a globally recognized certification that verifies excellence in food and beverage safety, quality management, and operational practices.
This independent recognition ensures your brand is produced in a facility that meets the highest international standards, providing confidence for distributors, retailers, and consumers alike.
