The Organic Food Federation (OFF)

Standard

1

The Organic Food Federation is at the forefront of promoting organic methods and maintaining high standards and best practice within the sector. New exciting opportunities for the UK’s organic producers, processors, traders and importers have been created due to the rising demand for organic products. Organic production is fully sustainable and environmentally sound. There is an increased awareness of the importance of sustainable methods of food production which reduce the detrimental impact on the environment. There has been a considerable growth in consumer demand for organic products which is reflected in the increase in organic commodities found in the marketplace. This demand can lead to increased profitability for all concerned. Organic produce is traceable from the farm to the fork because at every stage of its journey it is inspected and certified. This ensures the integrity of any product marketed as organic.
