In April, 2002, Sadia was re-certified with the 2000 version certificate ISO 9001– the most updated version of the 9001 norms – by the Bureau Veritas Quality International (BVQI), a worldwide credited entity for auditing and concession of the certificate.

ISO 9001 is an international norm that approves and validates the quality management and certifies the process that generates the products. The re-certification of Sadia covers the development, production, and commercialization of in natura products and industrialized chicken, turkey and vegetables to the market abroad.

In the end of 1995, the Sadia’s cold storage plant in Chapecó (SC), received for the first time its certificate, becoming the first Brazilian cold storage plant to receive the ISO 9001 certificate.
