RIYADH: AL Safi Danone was recently awarded a certificate of appreciation by The International Audit Services North America (AIB), as it had successfully fulfilled the requirements of the AIB Consolidated Standard for Food Safety.
Karim Manssour Dahbi, general manager of Al Safi Danone, commented:"Yet again, Al Safi Danone has been richly rewarded for its continuous development, collective team spirit, leadership and sense of responsibility, which are the vital components which let us realize our goals. We have recently succeeded in covering all the GCC countries with our products, since entering the Omani market, and this is another achievement of which we are justly proud."
AIB International is a corporation founded by the North American wholesale and retail baking industries in 1919 as a technology transfer center for bakers and food processors. The original mission of the organization was to "put science to work for the baker," and that basic theme is still central to all of the programs, products, and services provided by AIB to baking and general food production industries worldwide.
Although AIB's history has been traditionally linked with North American wholesale and retail baking, the Institute currently serves many segments of the food processing, distribution, foodservice, and retail industries worldwide. Today's AIB is well-positioned in audit services, food safety education, school of baking, research and technical services.
The AIB association currently has more than 900 members in many countries, ranging from international food ingredient and foodservice companies to small single-unit traditional and artisan retail bakeries.
