QUALITY CONTROL

P.C.Kannan & Co. operates with the motto “No compromise in Quality”. The highest standards of hygiene and quality control are followed at every step as set forth by the BRC global standards. Spices are procured during the optimal harvesting period, a critical step that ensures peak flavor and nutritional value in each spice. Purchased directly from farmers or through auctions, the spices go through rigorous assessments to meet the standards as set by the company. Once procured, each batch of farm-grade spices undergoes a thorough fumigation process. This step ensures that the spices remain free from any contaminants and are prepared for the meticulous processing that follows.

A highly qualified and dedicated Quality Assurance Department monitors all incoming ingredients as well as outgoing finished goods. This is accomplished through a rigorous food safety and inspection program that commences with our suppliers and extends until the products reache our valued customers. This stringent selection process guarantees that only the best spices find their way into the production line resulting in the best products out of the factory on to your table.

For special cases where additional safety measures are necessary, such as ETO treatment and steam sterilization, experienced and reputable professional companies are engaged ensuring spices of unparalleled purity are processed for your culinary creations.
