Adding Goods and Service Suppliers

Add your Food and Service Suppliers so you can track the source of your deliveries and have supplier contact details in the palm of your hand

Supplier info from Simply Safe and Suitable

Under Simply Safe and Suitable, your Verifier will check the records of:

  • your approved supplier list and supplier assurances (certificates)
  • the name and contact details of your supplier
  • the type and quantity of food received
  • the temperature of the food received and if it needs to be kept at a certain temperature to make sure it is safe and suitable 

Safe Food Pro provides you with an ad-hoc Receiving a delivery form that you can fill in from the mobile application whenever you receive a food delivery. You can also add a photograph of the delivery docket which will help if you ever need to recall food. 

This form gets you to select the Supplier that the delivery came from. Let's get those suppliers added!
