The programme is open to international growers willing to work to Bio Vera standards — from family farms to commercial estates. Current certification status is not a barrier to starting a conversation; alignment and audit planning are part of onboarding.
What group certification means in practice
Group certification covers members operating under a defined quality system with shared audit oversight. Bio Vera’s field app, Integrity Guard checks, and Protocol 360 evidence feed the same records auditors and buyers expect — reducing duplicate paperwork between “farm diary” and “export dossier.”
Programme vs marketplace
Bio Vera contracts production, defines inputs through sanctioned supplier channels, runs QA, and sells under the Bio Vera brand. Certification is embedded in that spine — not sold as a standalone badge without custody and settlement discipline behind it.
