Converting 50,000 Sq. Ft. to Food-Grade in 60 Days

From Tight Deadline to Full Compliance

When this client came to us, they had one non-negotiable requirement. Their imported products had to be stored in a food-grade compliant facility, and the timeline was aggressive.

Their previous provider could not meet the standard. Containers were scheduled, customers were waiting, and regulatory compliance was mandatory.

They needed a 3PL that could move quickly and get it right the first time.

What We Built

Converting 50,000 Square Feet in 60 Days

Food-grade compliance is not a label you put on a building. It requires disciplined processes, documented SOPs, sanitation controls, pest management, allergen procedures, employee training, traceability, and strict operational standards. And ultimately, it requires passing a live, in-person audit.

Within weeks of engagement, we committed to converting 50,000 square feet of our warehouse into fully compliant food-grade space. In under two months, we segregated and prepared the designated area, implemented sanitation and inspection protocols, developed formal SOP documentation, trained our team, established lot traceability procedures, and tightened operational controls to meet audit standards.

This was not a surface-level adjustment. It was a structural and procedural transformation of the space.

Passing the Audit

When the in-person audit took place, we were ready.

• Every document was in place.

• Every process was defined.

• Every procedure was operational.

We successfully passed the audit, giving the client full confidence to move their imports into a compliant, professionally managed food-grade environment.

The Result

Today, this client benefited from:

✔ 50,000 square feet converted in under 60 days
✔ A successful live audit
✔ Seamless continuation of imports
✔ Full regulatory compliance
✔ A long-term operational solution

Their business did not have to slow down. We adapted so they could keep growing.
