The trading network, before allowing its manufacturer shelves, performs the function of
the controlling body and independently checks its compliance with the regulatory act of food
law. Not all suppliers agree on such conditions, but most understand that such approach to
the choice of suppliers is in favor of all parties: the customer (trade networks) to the supplier
(manufacturer), consumers and government bodies. The customer receives a trusted partner
who, having invested a certain resource in bringing production into conformity, will have the
possibility of long-term cooperation. A supplier who has received the status of a supplier of a
particular trading network receives much more: a trusted customer; conformity of production
with more stringent requirements than legislative ones, which in turn creates conditions for
constant assurance and readiness for any measures of state supervision and audit;
attractiveness for other customers. Work on this model drives the economy of the country
forward by implementing the production facilities modern efficient technologies.
Representatives of International Companies in the Ukrainian market have achieved
much better results. By concluding long-term contracts for decades of uninterrupted supplies
of the standard product, they require the supplier to meet their internal requirements. Vendor
evaluation and selection procedures are based on internal standards, which in almost all
sections outstrips the legislative requirements of not only Ukraine but also other countries.
We conducted an audit of suppliers for the WOG network and set the level of compliance
of suppliers with the requirements of the food chain. According to our methodology, the
supplier has an appropriate assessment of the compliance level (from 1 to 100 points) for
each section of the audit. Suppliers with an overall score of few than 70 points are not eligible
for further cooperation.
We can conclude that among the tested enterprises, there are those who are of excellent
quality and good, but most do not have an inappropriate level of 5 enterprises out of 12. 7
enterprises have an inadequate level in the audit section – the implementation and
compliance of the safety management system. This reflects the state of compliance of the food
market with the requirements of the Law "On Basic Principles and Requirements for the
Safety and Quality of Food Products". 9 enterprises have an inappropriate level at least in one
section of the basic program of preconditions.
As a matter of fact, now many trading networks underestimate the effectiveness of the
process of proper supplier audit. The best supplier is not always the one who offers the lowest
price or high quality.
The supplier's audit will help reduce dependence on uncontrolled risks, reducing direct
and indirect overheads of enterprises and organizations. Ultimately, the implementation of
this business process will allow you to seriously improve the quality and safety of the
company's products, as well as reduce the cost of incoming control.
