Our Accreditations & Partners

This promotes a quality management system which achieves conformity of products and services to meet and exceed customer expectations. It is built around the ethos of audit, corrective action and a focus of continuous improvement of processes for the benefit of the customer.

Welch’s has taken this to heart and a number of the senior management team and supervisory team are Quality Representatives. As well as attending meetings and being responsible for their own site, our internal reps audit all other sites to ensure that not only is Welch’s meeting its targets but we’re also continuously looking for ways to improve.
