IFS

Abbreviation for the "International Featured Standards" set of rules with a series of food, product and service standards. It was developed in 2003 by representatives of the European food retail trade as the "International Food Standard" and was used for the standardised inspection of food safety and the quality level of producers. After several updates and the development of further standards, the brand was renamed to its current name. The name was changed following an expansion of the subject area.

The standards and their requirements (checklists) are aimed at various participants in the supply chain.
