Food Integrity Assurance

Food Integrity Assurance (FIA) was established by SAOS to deliver best-in-class assurance services with a 'client-centric' business culture.

This involves identifying mutual development opportunities and mitigating reputational risk of food and farming partners, standard owners, and the brands they underpin.

All services are delivered cost-effectively, with the added benefit that any profit from assurance delivered in Scotland will be reinvested back into the Scottish food and farming sector.
