Our Commitment
to Food Safety and Quality Control
Pierre Foods is dedicated to protecting it's customers, while supplying them with the highest quality
products that they have grown to love.
Food Safety is not a program but a way of life in our state-of-the-art
USDA approved facilities. Our products and processes are carefully designed
by degreed food scientists to be the safest and the best. But before
we can produce these products, our trained sanitarians clean and sanitize
the processing areas. Our cleaning operations are inspected and approved
prior to the start of production by our pre-operational inspectors and
USDA. Our continuing microbiological monitoring program will verify
our effectiveness.
Our products are then produced to meet or exceed
their rigid standards in our Total Quality Control (TQC) certified
plant. The TQC certification by the USDA places it among the
top ten of inspected meat plants. The manufacturing processes are
conducted under Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles
and monitoring programs. HACCP in conjunction with a sophisticated
microbiological monitoring program of environmental, equipment, and
finished product testing provides the assurance for our customer that they
will receive safe, wholesome, high quality products.
Fully cooking our products destroys harmful bacteria and actual flame
broiling and searing with a brander gives our charbroiled products a delicious
"fresh off the grill" flavor. Graduated superheated air ranges from
1000 F to 300 F providing superior texture and color. The products
are Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) to lock in flavor and assure shelf
life. All of this ensures a consistent quality product that is sure
to satisfy every time.
To be a leader in the industry we cannot rest on our past accomplishments
and successes, we must continue to advance and challenge ourselves.
We employ outside consultants on an annual basis to review and challenge
our processes and food safety system. We are also audited by independent
auditors and continue to score high marks.
