“I first met Harriet Simmons while attending a BRC auditing course, where she immediately stood out as an excellent trainer—clear, knowledgeable, and highly engaging. At the time, I had just taken on a quality management system that was outdated and no longer fit for purpose. I approached Harriet for consultation, and she played a key role in helping us completely redevelop our QMS systems. Over the past five years, Harriet has become an invaluable partner to our business. Not only does she provide exceptional training in food safety for our staff, but she also supports our operations team in maintaining the highest BRCGS standards in our warehouse. Her expertise, professionalism, and dedication have made a real and lasting impact. Simply put, we wouldn’t want to do it without her.”
