Agents and brokers face several challenges in conducting technical food due diligence because they often do not manufacture, store or physically handle the products they trade. Key challenges include limited visibility of supplier operations, verifying food safety and quality controls across complex supply chains.
“Buyers want technical credentials that we can’t always provide.”
Brand owners and retailers increasingly expect the products you present to come with robust specifications, supplier assessments and compliant labelling. If you can’t provide these, you risk losing listings to competitors who can.
“Our suppliers don’t always have the technical capability UK buyers need.”
Many of the manufacturers you work with, particularly smaller or international suppliers, may not have the resources to produce the documentation and evidence that UK buyers require. So it falls to you to make sure the right documentation is in place.
“A non-compliant label held up a listing for weeks”
A product with a non-compliant label cannot be sold in the UK market. When labelling issues surface late in the process, they cause delays, additional cost and damage to your credibility with the buyer.
“We need a technical expert we can call on, not a full-time employee”
As an intermediary, maintaining a permanent technical team is rarely viable. Yet the need for qualified technical input on specific deals or listings is real and recurring.
