THE VALUE OF QUALITY
How do you value quality? Not all food companies place the same value on quality, nor do all measure quality food manufacturing the same way. Hearthside’s quality food manufacturing philosophy is to meet or exceed the standards required of the world’s leading brands and premier food companies.
QUALITY BY THE NUMBERS
Measuring what matters begins measuring quality. All Hearthside facilities are SQF III. All have under met or exceeded customer, industry and regulatory specifications. Multiple Hearthside bakeries have attained perfect 1000 AIB scores and our entire network averages 940. These numbers, and others like them, benchmarks Hearthside quality as a world-class manufacturing environment.
PLACING AN ROI ON QUALITY
The best way to measure the value of quality is to measure its absence. Billions of dollars in brand equity, the lifetime value of customers, and loss of critical market share are just a few of the casualties of gaps in quality. Hearthside’s world-class manufacturing environment ensures our customer’s products, brands and consumers are protected from concept to consumption.
Delivering consistent outstanding quality requires the systems and structures of a world-class contract manufacturer. Exceptional quality is the foundation of consumer confidence and brand protection.
BRAND PROTECTION
Trusting billion-dollar brands to a contract manufacturer is a huge leap of faith. Misplacing that trust can be devastating. Hearthside’s 11-point brand protection gives our customers the confidence to entrust us with more volume and more projects than anyone in the industry. Find out more. Brand protection is essential to customer value creation.
