WINNIPEG, Oct. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ – Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods announced
today that their facility aced the British Retail Consortium (BRC)
Global Standards Re-Certification. The largest hemp food manufacturer
in the world to grow, make, and sell their own hemp foods, Manitoba
Harvest (www.manitobaharvest.com) improved a full ‘grade’ from their first certification last year.

“Improving our BRC Certification standing to a ‘A-Grade’ showcases our
commitment to continuous improvement – especially when it comes to food
safety and quality” explained Mike Fata, Chief Executive Officer and
Co-founder of Manitoba Harvest. “If a school had a hemp production
program we’d already have our PhD. Receiving a top grade in our
re-certification validates our team’s commitment to quality.”

BRC Certification is the leading global food safety and quality
certification program and currently used by suppliers in over 100
countries. To receive BRC Certification, Manitoba Harvest underwent a
voluntary audit by a third-party Certification Body that ensures the
production, packaging, storage and distribution of safe food and
consumer products. The annual certification is meant to reassure
retailers and end consumers of the capability and competence of
Manitoba Harvest’s facility and therefore the integrity of Manitoba
Harvest products.

Celebrating their 15^th year in business, Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods is the world’s largest
hemp food manufacturer to grow, make and sell their own brand of hemp
food products. Manitoba Harvest is proud to offer award-winning
products like Hemp Hearts (raw shelled hemp seeds) and HEMP PRO 70
(hemp protein concentrate).
