We are proud to assure 3,100 voluntary members, covering more than 90% of Scotland’s crops and are dedicated to cultivating opportunities through quality assurance for our members.

Our standards are formed by and for growers and grain buyers, guided by the needs of the markets. Our crop quality and traceability scheme ensures safe and environmentally friendly production of arable crops in Scotland. Our aim is to make sure that the mechanics are in place to allow easy access to the most attractive markets.

Our board is a cooperative of eight organisations purposefully selected from across the supply chain.

SQC has appointed an independent certification body, Food Integrity Assurance, to conduct assessments and certification. FIA also delivers assessments for QMS, which means it can combine assessments and reduce duplication for SQC members.

We provide our 3,100 members with the recognition to open doors to new and existing markets to expand your reach and increase your profitability.

SQC has access to a valuable forum of insights and knowledge through its cross-sector board and established Scottish Crops Supply Chain Hub. This allows it to anticipate industry development and create a supportive business environment for growers to maintain their competitive edge.

Providing the traceability that the market demands.

SQC acts on behalf of all growers, advocating for your interests, influencing policy decisions at national and international levels. Taking on supply chain challenges at industry level and protecting growers from tackling them at farm level.
