Bay Logistics designs and implements Food Safety Programs for a wide variety of food and grocery items including salt, sugar, soft drinks, olives, pickles, peppers, nonfat dry milk, cookies, nuts, milk-based recovery drinks, creamer, butter, and food packaging. Strict adherence to MDARD (FDA) guidelines, AIB standards and third party customer requirements is required at each Michigan food grade distribution center. Robust WMS systems insure FIFO, while also providing each client remote access to real time inventory levels via the Bay Logistics Web Portal. The Bay Management Team consists of multiple food grade experts, each with years of direct experience in Food Defense and Sanitation processes. Internal, customer and 3PL audits are employed by the Bay Logistics Food Safety Team to insure product quality and safety. Bay Logistics is fully compliant with all state and federal regulatory requirements, including the Bioterrorism Act and the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
