Protecting Food Safety Standards From The Ground Up

Food manufacturing and processing facilities face some of the strictest pest control requirements of any sector. A single pest sighting on the production floor can trigger an audit failure, a product recall, or the loss of a major retail contract. Pest King works with food manufacturers, processors, packers, and distributors across Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth and Stirling to deliver rigorous, audit-ready pest management, with the documentation, site knowledge, and response times your business demands. We support BRCGS Food Safety Standard, SALSA, Red Tractor, and major retailer-specific audit schemes.

The Risks

Why Pest Control Matters For Your Sector

Rodents on the production floor or in raw material stores, a direct BRCGS and SALSA non-conformance

Stored product insects infesting raw ingredients, packaging, or finished goods, causing contamination and stock loss

Flies in processing and packing areas, spreading pathogens and triggering EHO and audit failures

Pest activity identified during a BRCGS, SALSA, or retailer audit, putting certification and contracts at risk

Inadequate pest control documentation, a common audit failure point even where pest activity is low

Cockroaches in plant rooms, drains, and food contact areas, a serious food safety and legal liability

Bird ingress through loading bays and roof voids, contaminating production areas with droppings and feathers
