Quality & standards

Qualityyoucantrust.

Good food is not an accident. Every Pakacha product is checked at six points between the farm gate and your kitchen — and no batch leaves our facility without passing.

Checkpoints

Six, every batch

02Six checkpoints

Checked at every step.

Quality is not one test at the end of the line. It is a set of decisions made at each stage, by people trained to say no.

  1. Supervisors checking incoming grain at the Pakacha intake yard, with trucks and silos behind
    01

    At sourcing

    Strict selection criteria at farm gates across our sourcing region before any crop is accepted for purchase.

  2. Forklifts moving palletised sacks through the Pakacha storage warehouse
    02

    At intake & storage

    Bagged, dried and stored under controlled conditions to cut the risk of spoilage or contamination.

  3. Pakacha's multi-stage cleaning line separating cobs, chaff, stones and metal from the grain
    03

    During cleaning

    Pests, cobs, stones and metal contaminants removed before anything enters production.

  4. A mill worker handling maize during flour production

    During processing

    Each stage of production is monitored to keep every product within its specification.

  5. Pakacha staff adding the micronutrient premix at the fortification station
    05

    During fortification

    Vitamins and minerals added under control, so every batch meets its intended nutritional value.

  6. Pakacha workers packing bags of maize flour into branded cartons

    During packaging

    Primary, secondary and tertiary checks — sealed, labelled and shelf-ready before dispatch.

03How we work

The standards behind every pack.

The habits that keep a food factory safe are unglamorous and constant. These are ours.

  • 01

    Good Manufacturing Practices

    Personal hygiene protocols and proper sanitation across the facility.

  • 02

    Pest control

    Structured programmes to prevent contamination at every stage of production and storage.

  • 03

    Trained quality teams

    Quality Control monitors raw materials and in-process checks; a separate Quality Assurance team verifies parameters from intake to finished product.

  • 04

    Consistent standards

    No batch leaves our facility without passing internal quality checks, on either line.

  • 05

    Customer feedback

    Feedback from distributors, retailers and consumers is tracked and fed back into production — quality assurance beyond the factory gate.

04One standard

One name. One standard.

Pakacha is one name on many packs, so it has to mean the same thing on every one of them. Flour is fortified with zinc and B-vitamins as it is milled. Animal feeds are balanced for the animals they are made for.

As rice, cooking oil and honey join the family, each will pass through the same checkpoints described on this page before it carries the Pakacha name.
