INCREDIBLE AUDIT SUCCESS FOR BELHAVEN BREWERY!

We’re excited to share that the Belhaven team celebrated exceptional results in their BRC audit in February – achieving an AA grade for the first ever time.

The BRC Standard is in place to ensure food and beverage businesses comply with all legal and good practice standards to make products safely and to the highest standard. An AA grade is the highest possible grade available.

Ahead of the audit in February, the team worked tirelessly over a ten-week period to prepare and review processes at the brewery.

Mark Millett, Director of Brewing Operations said:

“The BRC result is a fantastic achievement and reflects a huge amount of work across the Belhaven Team supported by Sam Mitchell and the Quality team based in Bury.

Whilst we have always been proud of the standards we operate at Belhaven, getting ready for an audit like BRC required a lot of additional work to be done in a short space of time and the way the team pulled together and got this completed was impressive. We know we’ve still got work to do to maintain the AA standard, but this accreditation should be celebrated and it’s important to recognise a great team effort and to thank everyone involved.”

Keith Garson, Brewing & Kegging Manager at Belhaven Brewery said:

“This is a brilliant achievement for Belhaven Brewery, gaining BRC accreditation was originally a 10-month project, and we achieved it in three months. An incredible amount of thought, planning and hard work went into it and we are all very proud of what we achieved in such a short space of time – we are working on our plans to celebrate!”
