COMPLIANCE

Compliance is built into the framework, not added at the end.
Amramphalam’s compliance approach is designed to support responsible produce trade through documentation discipline, regulatory alignment, quality verification, and commodity-specific review from origin to destination.

What we focus on

Fresh produce crosses multiple regulatory and quality checkpoints. Our approach is to build awareness of those checkpoints into sourcing, preparation, shipment planning, and import execution, so the business is working with a structured compliance pathway rather than reacting after the fact.

How our compliance framework is executed

Compliance review begins with product and route identification. From there, we assess what documentation, facility support, shipment controls, and import-side requirements may apply. This can include export-side food and plant documentation, residue awareness, import licensing status, and commodity-specific checks based on Canadian requirements.

For Canada, importers of fresh fruits and vegetables are required to hold a Safe Food for Canadians (SFC) licence, and firms that buy, sell, import, or export fresh fruits and vegetables in Canada generally require DRC/FVDRC membership unless exempt under the regulations. CFIA also directs importers to use AIRS to determine commodity-specific requirements.

Documentation and standards

Depending on the commodity, origin, and transaction structure, compliance records may include:

Safe Food for Canadians (SFC) licence — [insert licence number/status]

Fruit and Vegetable Dispute Resolution Corporation (DRC/FVDRC) membership — [insert member number/status]

  • APEDA-linked export documentation — [insert exporter/partner details]
  • FSSAI-linked facility documentation — [insert facility/partner details]
  • plant quarantine / phytosanitary documentation where required
  • commodity-specific import documentation based on AIRS results
  • MRL-related records or supporting test documents where applicable

Residue and quality controls

MRL awareness is a critical part of produce compliance. Health Canada states that maximum residue limits are legal limits for pesticide residues on food. Our compliance framework is designed to consider applicable residue expectations, available supporting records, and product-specific review before movement.

Accountability and local coordination

Compliance works best when it is tied to named responsibility. Our model supports this through clear document handling, local points of contact, coordination with service partners, and step-by-step visibility from origin to destination.
