Quality at Grupo Finançor is considered a strategic axis that cuts across all business areas, supported by structured management systems, internationally recognized certifications, and an organizational culture focused on continuous improvement.
More than a regulatory requirement, Quality is integrated into operational management, decision-making, and relationships with customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders. Through the implementation of international standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, and the principles of the Codex Alimentarius, the Group ensures process consistency, risk control, legal compliance, and a focus on customer satisfaction.
This integrated approach reinforces the solidity of the management model, promotes operational efficiency, and sustains confidence in the Group's performance throughout the entire value chain.
Finançor Agroalimentar has had a Quality Management System certified by ISO 9001 since 2004, an Environmental Management System certified by ISO 14001 since 2012, and, more recently, an Information Security Management System certified by ISO 27001 in 2023. These benchmarks demonstrate an integrated approach to management, ensuring Quality, environmental responsibility, and information protection throughout the value chain. Obtaining the ISO 27001 certification is based on the high-level structure of ISO 9001 and is a milestone that reflects not only the company's commitment and maturity in information security but also its continuous dedication to adopting international best practices for the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of its stakeholders' information.
Salsiçor and Avigex also maintain ISO 9001 certification, obtained in 2014, 2017 and 2024 respectively, demonstrating these companies' commitment to improvement through process standardization and a focus on customer satisfaction.
