Food Safety and Hygiene Policy

---

 Here at Sona Trading Company, we place your health and well-being at the forefront of our operations. We are unyielding in our commitment to delivering tamarind of the highest quality, a pledge solidified by our comprehensive Food Safety and Hygiene Policy.

1. Trusted Sourcing: With over 40 years of experience, we handpick our raw materials from established suppliers, ensuring that your tamarind starts off as good as it ends up.
2. Isolated Material Handling: We minimize risk by segregating raw material storage and cleaning areas from those used for moulding and packing, effectively preventing any form of contamination.
3. Rigorous Cleaning: Our three-stage cleaning process — before, during, and after moulding — ensures that our tamarind is free from foreign matter, setting new standards in quality.
4. Employee Hygiene: Safety begins with our staff. Mandatory headnets and a jewelry-free work environment keep our production process hygienic and your product untainted.
5. High-Quality Ingredients: Our commitment to excellence is exemplified by our choice in additives, such as iodized salt from leading manufacturers.
6. Clean Moulding Blocks: A daily hot water cleanse keeps our moulding blocks pristine, affecting the quality of the final product positively.
7. Uncompromising Accuracy: To guarantee meticulous measurement, we rely solely on government-certified electronic scales from top-tier manufacturers in the weighing industry.
8. Final Touch: Each tamarind pack leaves our facility only after meticulous packing and informative labeling.

• Our workforce receives in-depth training on hygiene and safety protocols.
• We conduct regular health inspections, including detailed fingernail checks, to maintain a staff that lives up to our quality expectations.
• Routine internal audits help us consistently improve and adapt our food safety processes.
• Special labels identifying the labourer responsible for each batch help us track quality at every stage, from moulding to wrapping.

By adhering to these guidelines and core principles, Sona Trading Company assures you that each pack of tamarind meets the highest standards of food safety, earning your trust with every bite.
