When it comes to fish and fishery products, quality control includes all the steps taken to protect the quality of the material since catch till it reaches the consumer. Quality is commonly thought of as degree of excellence. It is in fact; the composite of those characteristics that differentiate the individual units of a product and have significance in determining the degree of acceptability of that unit by the buyer. In considering the quality of fish and fishery products, significance is attached to physical, biochemical, organoleptic and bacterial characteristics.
It was at the right time that the Group diversified into various segments, most importantly IQF products which is growing by leaps. And for Geo Seafoods Group, the term “Quality Management” is the seamless assessment of operations at all stages and levels. To facilitate this, the company decided to entrust the responsibility of Quality Management to an individual directly responsible to the management and decided to bring- in Dr.Chinthu Vivek, wife of Mr.Vivek as the Chief of Operations-Quality Management. She joined the group towards the mid of 2019.
