As part of our continued commitment to providing you with the highest quality services, we are pleased to announce that Assured Audits merged with Quality Auditing Specialists Ltd (QAS) on 31 March 2025.
Please note that this change does not affect our other business Assured Food Safety Ltd (e.g. Foodstuffs approved supplier assessments and food safety consultancy and training services will still be conducted under AFS).
This merger is a strategic move to ensure that the expertise and established relationships continue, and you remain supported in your Food Act verification and evaluation needs moving forward.
QAS have been operating for over 15 years with Maree Haddon, Managing Director, now leading a team of 7 verifiers and 2 administration staff. QAS and AANZ share company values and approach to business, and they are MPI recognised food and wine verifiers. QAS are 100% NZ owned and operated, covering the North and South Island with verifiers based in key locations.
Thank you for your continued trust and partnership in us since 2002. We are excited about the future and look forward to continuing to serve you under our new, combined entity.
