GMP Dairy Ltd became the first Australasian company which received “Good Manufacturing Practice” (GMP) Certification by China Quality Certification Centre (CQC) for their plants. GMP Dairy which was established in 2009 has been investing heavily in its quality systems to ensure it meets the high standards required for a GMP Certification. In November 2013, GMP Dairy undertook a voluntary audit of its premise and quality systems by the officials from CQC. After about a week’s careful examination, GMP Dairy was granted with the GMP Certification.
GMP standard is widely applied to pharmaceutical manufacturing to standardise its equipment, software, quality management system, standard operating procedures and any other aspects. The reasoning behind GMP Dairy being granted this certification is due to GMP Dairy’s parent company, GMP Pharmaceuticals Limited which has over 20 years experience in pharmaceutical manufacturing in Australia. With its head office in Sydney Australia, GMP Pharmaceuticals Group has three pharmaceutical plants specialising in complementary medicines and dairy supplements. The company’s various products are being sold in major pharmacies and supermarkets in Australia. A large number of them are also exported to over 30 countries and areas all around the world.
Receiving GMP Certification enables GMP Dairy to assure that the production processes, operational environment and ultimately the products are of high quality and do not pose any risk to the consumers or public.
