We have had BRC certification for many years, but this year we have a twist! We purchased a raw material storage facility that is off site. It is less than 50km away (actually about 8km). Now I am wondering if we need to add it to the scope or put it in the exclusion list. The production facility really has nothing to do with except for possibility that the raw will come to our plant for processing at some point. Much like our other growers who store their raw until we are to process it. The storage facility is controlled and monitored by the agronomy department and has Canada GAP certification as a storage facility.
Should I or should I not include this for upcoming audit?
Thanks
