Beehive Botanicals Earns GMP Certification
Beehive Botanicals of Hayward, Wis., recently achieved Good Manufacturing Practices certification by the NSF under new standards established specifically for dietary supplements. (Each Beehive Botanicals product includes bee-collected pollen, royal jelly, propolis, or honey.)
The Good Manufacturing Practices Program (GMP) for dietary supplements was published in June 2007. The final draft of the publication took four years to complete.
“In anticipation of industry-wide changes, we’ve worked diligently over the past several years to achieve federal GMP certification. The benefit to our customers who rely on us for manufacturing their products is twofold. First, we are prepared to advise them on their responsibilities for meeting the new regulations. Next, because we’re GMP certified, each batch manufactured here will meet federal specifications for identity, purity, dosage strength and composition,” explained Linda Graham, CEO and president of Beehive Botanicals.
Third party audits ensure that standard operating procedures for every aspect of dietary supplement manufacturing meet the new standards.
Because Graham and her staff have worked all along with customers on quality enhancements toward GMP certification, the Hayward manufacturer is ahead of the game. Manufacturers that never operated under GMP programs, as well as those using former GMP program measures, must quickly invest time and money to be compliant.
