[QUOTE="traineefarmer, post: 5775894, member: 89974"] We were early adopters of FA through Fabbl, which became the supermarket's preferred choice for food standards compliance after a period of each of them having their own set of rules and inspectors. At the time we saw it as a good thing as it cut red tape, reduced duplicated inspections and opened more markets to us. It was never a trap. It was simply what the market dictated. The vast majority of food in this country is sold to the public by just 4 supermarket operators and like it or not THEY are the ones who set quality standards, prices, demand, packaging and pretty much every trend in what the public buys and what our industry produces and how it produces it. Ignore them if you wish, but please don't blame those of us who did what we could to keep customers and stay in business over the last 20+ years. [/QUOTE]
