We are GMP+ International
GMP+ International is the world’s largest scheme for safe and sustainable animal feed. Our mission is to enable every company in the feed chain to take responsibility for working in a safe and sustainable way.
After contaminated feed caused several serious incidents, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) was set up by the Dutch feed industry in 1992 as a certification scheme for feed safety. Today, GMP+ International is a not-for-profit with over 19,000 GMP+ certified companies in 90 countries.


GMP+ Feed Certification scheme
The GMP+ Feed Certification (GMP+ FC) scheme provides internationally recognised standards to produce safe feed, and a growing set of international standards for sustainable feed.

Our chain approach
The strength of our scheme lies in our unique chain approach. Safe and sustainable feed can only be achieved when companies work together as a coherence within the feed chain. That's why all companies from collection to production can be GMP+ certified. Because a chain is as strong as its weakest link.
