Quality Assurance & Produce

Great tasting, high quality fresh food! 

Quality is at the heart of everything we do at SPAR!

This commitment shines through in our approach to sourcing and supplying fresh produce. Our expert Quality Assurance team works tirelessly to deliver exceptional quality fruits and vegetables to our customers. We are proud to source over 75% of our fresh food from more than 180 local suppliers, ensuring that each product meets our high standards of freshness and excellence.

At every stage we have quality checked our ‘The Greengrocer’s’ veg for freshness.

From the moment produce leaves the field to the moment it reaches your table, our QA team is dedicated to maintaining the highest quality standards. They conduct rigorous quality checks at every stage of the supply chain, inspecting products against strict specifications in our warehouses and visiting producers to uphold our standards year-round. Their passion for excellence drives them to continuously assess product quality and supplier performance, ensuring that only the best produce makes it from the field to your fork. 

At SPAR, we are committed to providing you with the finest fruit and vegetables, and our Quality Assurance team is at the forefront of this mission every single day.
