Technology & Testing
Continuous Innovation
We benchmark our food safety and quality programs against industry standards to incorporate emerging best practices and the latest technologies.

Our thorough internal audit program routinely verifies compliance, identifies issues, and drives continuous improvement. All facilities undergo annual surveillance audits and are certified under the Global Food Safety Initiative (GSFI) benchmark standard such as FSSC2200, a universally recognized food safety standards certification schema. Across all Ferrara manufacturing facilities, we complete about 33,000 quality checks per week.

To ensure all our candy starts with high-quality ingredients, we source from carefully selected suppliers. We partner with nonprofits and ingredient certification bodies such as Bonsucro, Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), and Initiative for Responsible Carnauba (IRC) to ensure the integrity of our raw materials.
