USANA’s 43,000 square-foot manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah has earned a Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) certification from the Safe Quality Foods (SQF) program. This particular manufacturing plant houses the company’s bar, gusset, single-serve and powder-blending production.

“Receiving our GFSI certification is a landmark moment for USANA and our manufacturing capabilities,” said Jim Brown, USANA President and CEO. “In the crowded health and wellness space it’s important to differentiate yourself. Receiving this certification is a great way for us to do just that. I’m extremely proud of our manufacturing and quality teams who have implemented the standards and practices necessary to pass this demanding audit.”

The goal of GFSI is to reduce recalls and deliver safer products to consumers, and this certification signifies that USANA’S enrobed snack bars and drink mix powders meet stringent requirements for food safety management systems.

“SQF is considered to be the highest standard in the industry, and our certification with them places us at the top of the mountain,” said Walter Noot, USANA Chief Operating Officer. “Having SQF certify our dedication to the safest and highest-quality production standards is a huge benefit to us—especially with our foods products. I look forward to the new opportunities this certification can create for us. Thank you to everyone at our USANA foods facility for all their hard work.”
