Simple Food Processing

Organic Standards apply to Simple Food Processing

Organic Standards apply to Simple Food Processing such as:

  • Cleaning
  • Peeling, chopping and slicing
  • Packing and repacking (for instance box schemes)
  • Blending where the nature of the food is not changed eg muesli
  • Situations where the nature of the food is not changed eg flour milling or butchery cutting‍

Simple food processors can be on-farm premises or dedicated units. It is not always apparent whether food processing is Simple or more complex.

We always recommend that you take advantage of our experience by calling SOPA Member Services on 0300 772 9795 to discuss your operations.
