I have contacted Ahold and expect clarification as to their requirements. All high risk packinghouses must be listed along with contact information etc. (I have attached a checklist for procurement to complete for me as soon as possible) I have included Chile (not a high risk country) in this list simply because Walmart will require them audited and its best to have the contact information for them also. I will need the most current certificates and if the packing house does not have them we will have to arrange for an approved audit (from their list) for each packinghouse not current, this is including Mexico. I explained to Mary that we have not been very successful having packinghouse audited in Michoacán, Mexico
