Receiving scores at this high level in our PrimusGFS audit from the strictest and most stringent of all the regulatory bodies is extremely important to us. The audit results reinforce our ongoing commitment to food safety issues and go hand-in-hand with our ongoing collaborative research study with Auburn University's Department of Horticulture on food safety issues related to fresh produce contamination in the CEA agtech sector, such as listeria."
