Grupo Rosmar is GLOBALG.A.P.’s local partner in Mexico

The firm focuses on providing solutions for preparing healthy and sustainable foods. It has a team of qualified advisers and constantly innovates with the aim of providing solutions for this sector. For this reason, in October 2015 Grupo Rosmar became GLOBALG.A.P’s local partner for Mexico, through which the GLOBALG.A.P Farm Assurer methodology for developing the procedures for successful implementation of this standard in Mexico was prepared.

The relationship facilitates direct communication with the GLOBALG.A.P management and technical teams. This has made it possible to build capabilities in the agrifood industry through training and qualification, as it is the Farm Assurer Manager in Mexico, in charge of developing licensed professionals. For instance, workshops are conducted by GLOBALG.A.P Licensed Farm Assurers with lengthy experience in certification, consultancy and implementation of the agrifood sector scheme that is best known and accepted worldwide.
