Standards

By looking for a Red Tractor logo when you are shopping, you’ll know your food has met rigorous standards.

A product cannot be Red Tractor certified if it doesn’t meet strict criteria. And we mean it too. In the 3-month period (April to June 2024), 656 members had their certification suspended and 129 members had their certification revoked.

But what are these standards?

Rigorous standards cover every key stage of your food’s journey from farms to pack. Each farm sector has a specific set of standards that must be met.
