Maintaining the Highest Standards in Lusk

HANNON Transport is pleased to confirm a successful outcome following a recent unannounced BRCGS audit at our Lusk facility.

The audit, which took place on Thursday 23rd April, involved a full-day assessment by an independent auditor. Following the review, the site achieved AA certification*, maintaining the highest possible standard under the BRCGS framework for unannounced audits.

This result reflects the consistency, discipline, and high standards maintained across our Lusk operation.

What AA Certification Means

BRCGS certification is a recognised benchmark for quality, safety, and operational control within logistics and storage environments—particularly in food and temperature-controlled supply chains.

Achieving AA status* confirms that:

• Operations are consistently maintained to audit-ready standards
• Processes and controls are effectively implemented across the site
• Documentation and traceability systems are robust and up to date
• Teams are operating with strong awareness of compliance requirements

Unannounced audits provide an additional level of scrutiny, ensuring that standards are upheld at all times—not just in preparation for scheduled assessments.

Audit-Ready Operations Every Day

The outcome of this audit demonstrates that the Lusk facility operates to a consistently high standard across both warehouse operations and documentation processes.

Maintaining audit readiness requires:

• Structured operational procedures
• Ongoing staff training and engagement
• Strong attention to detail across handling and record-keeping
• Continuous monitoring and improvement

This approach ensures that the site is fully prepared for inspection at any time.

Recognising the Team Behind the Result

This achievement is a direct reflection of the work carried out by our Compliance and Lusk teams, who ensure that standards are maintained across all aspects of the operation.

Their focus on consistency, accuracy, and day-to-day execution is what enables results like this to be delivered.

Supporting Customers with Compliant Logistics

For customers operating within food, retail, and temperature-controlled supply chains, compliance is a critical requirement.

Maintaining BRCGS AA* certification provides assurance that HANNON Transport delivers:

• Controlled and compliant handling of goods
• Full traceability across warehouse operations
• Reliable processes aligned with industry standards
• Consistent service quality across all consignments
