What is the minimum score required for an "E-excellent" rating on an SQF certification audit?

  1. 90

  2. 92

  3. 94

  4. 96

The correct answer is: 96

Achieving an "E-excellent" rating on an SQF certification audit signifies a high level of compliance with the SQF Code. The minimum score required for this designation is 96. This threshold reflects the SQF's commitment to safety and quality, ensuring that facilities meet stringent criteria in areas such as hazard analysis, critical control points, and overall food safety management practices. Scores below this level indicate various degrees of non-compliance or issues that could affect the safety and quality of food products. A score of 96 or above demonstrates not just compliance but excellence in execution of these standards, highlighting an organization’s dedication to maintaining superior food safety practices and a robust quality management system. This rating can enhance the reputation of a facility, potentially leading to increased consumer trust and market competitiveness.
