FORT WORTH, Texas - Woods Distribution, a Fort Worth-based third-party logistics (3PL) provider, has achieved Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) certification, reinforcing its commitment to maintaining high standards of food safety and operational control across its logistics network.
HACCP is a globally recognized system designed to identify, evaluate, and control food safety hazards throughout the supply chain. The certification establishes a structured, preventative approach to risk management, ensuring that critical control points are monitored and managed to protect product integrity during storage, handling, and distribution.
“For us, food safety is built into how we operate - not treated as an afterthought,” said Will Scherer, Director of Sales of Woods Distribution. “Achieving HACCP certification reflects the discipline of our processes and the consistency of our teams in maintaining safe, controlled environments for our customers’ products.”
The HACCP framework focuses on identifying potential biological, chemical, and physical hazards and implementing controls at key stages of the logistics process. This includes monitoring temperature conditions, maintaining sanitation protocols, ensuring proper product handling, and documenting procedures to support traceability and accountability.
For companies operating in food and beverage, consumer packaged goods (CPG), and other regulated industries, HACCP certification provides added assurance that their logistics partner is aligned with established safety standards. It also supports compliance with regulatory requirements and retailer expectations, which increasingly prioritize validated food safety systems.
Woods Distribution integrates its food safety protocols across its broader service offering, which includes warehousing, contract packaging (co-pack), and transportation coordination. By embedding HACCP principles into daily operations, the company helps reduce risk across multiple stages of the supply chain - from inbound storage to outbound distribution.
“HACCP gives structure to what reliable operations should look like,” Scherer added. “It ensures that safety, consistency, and accountability are maintained at every step, which is critical for customers managing sensitive or time-dependent products.”
The certification also complements Woods Distribution’s existing focus on operational consistency and quality control. As supply chains grow more complex and product handling requirements become more stringent, structured systems such as HACCP play an increasingly important role in maintaining trust between logistics providers and their customers.
By achieving HACCP certification, Woods Distribution continues to strengthen its position as a logistics partner capable of supporting food-grade and regulated supply chains with disciplined execution and reliable oversight.
