Certification bodies
There are more than 300 certification
bodies around the world providing inspection and certification services to
organic farmers and producers although probably for only half that number is
it their main area of activity. The
various accreditations offered by the IOAS provides credibility in the eyes
of both your clients, your clients' customers and with regulators. The IOAS
are known world-wide as the experts in this field and you can expect a
rigorous but empathetic assessment. In
a global market, a global guarantee system is the only one that makes sense.
The IOAS continues to pursue a harmonised system of organic conformity
assessment. For many
certification bodies, working with the IOAS simply makes them better
at their job. Our international perspective and experience is unsurpassed. If
