Vienna Beef is a HAACP-approved (food safety program) manufacturing facility, implementing a sanitation program in which critical areas are checked and inspected multiple times daily. Manufacturing equipment is cleaned and sanitized daily according to a written sanitation procedure, preventing bacteria growth. A skilled and trained quality control lab monitors manufacturing conditions while ensuring product consistency every day. A select few manufacturing companies have been SQF 2000 certified. We are proud to be included in this class. This certification recognizes our sanitation, record-keeping, and accountability to the industry we serve. These steps assure that Vienna Beef products are fit to feed your family. Using the highest quality ingredients and adhering to our strict manufacturing guidelines gives us this confidence.
