 Metro Supermarket Market! Market! upholds global food safety standards

All thumbs up for food safety and quality: the Metro Supermarket Market! Market! team

Consumer safety remains top-of-mind for us at Metro Retail Stores.

When it comes to best practices in quality and food safety, our Metro Supermarket in Market! Market! Taguig is among the branches that continually set the highest standards.

This was recently affirmed by the British Standards Institution (BSI) Group Philippines, Inc., which, after a thorough auditing process recertified the branch’s Fresh Section for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP).

Both certifications attest to our adherence to the strictest safety, quality and regulatory requirements throughout the food production process. Both GMP and HACCP certificates are your assurance of getting only the best products, services and shopping experience at Metro Supermarkets.

You can find these certifications at the Fresh sections of our three other flagship Metro Supermarkets at Metro Alabang, Metro Ayala Center Cebu, and Metro Mandaue.
