News dropped in March that the SQF Code Edition 10 audits are expected to begin on Jan. 2, 2027. As we regularly discuss with our customers (and live by as we’re audited and certified ourselves under the SQF Food Safety Code for Storage and Distribution), it means the time to prepare is now.
However, preparation is no longer just about ensuring you can pass a multi-day inspection; Edition 10 represents a major evolution that shifts facilities from reactive risk management to a proactive, 365-day commitment.
