BIFMA Standards Compliance in Visakhapatnam
Vizag has a diverse industrial base: pharmaceutical companies in the Nacharam and Atchutapuram areas need WHO-GMP and ISO 9001. Seafood exporters from the port need HACCP and EU food safety compliance, since the EU market is a major buyer of Indian seafood. Steel and heavy engineering at RINL need ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 for large contract qualification. We work with Vizag clients remotely with planned on-site visits.
Getting BIFMA Standards Compliance is a must for companies in Visakhapatnam to clear customs smoothly and avoid shipment delays. With Visakhapatnam's business base centered around Steel & Shipbuilding, Pharmaceuticals, Petroleum Refining, units in areas like VSEZ Special Economic Zone and Autonagar Industrial Area rely on this certificate to prove their quality.
