Our Process

From Sourcing to Logistics, Nemco has you covered.

Our 360 process ensures unmatched efficiency, quality, and cost savings in the food industry.

Logistics

From ocean freight to trucking and drayage, we handle the intricate facets of transporting products from the manufacturing source to our customers. Our focus on logistics revolves around efficiently navigating the journey of our products from their origin to their destination. At Nemco, our strength lies in the seamless management of this process, enhancing our ability to deliver quality products to our customers.

Sourcing

Selecting the right factory is critical. It directly impacts the quality, safety, and reliability of the products we bring to the market, ultimately defining our reputation and success. Nemco works with only the best factories worldwide, ensuring they pass third-party safety and quality audits.

Obtaining the right food certifications is an important step in our importing process, as it assures consumers and regulatory bodies that the products meet rigorous safety and quality standards, instilling trust and compliance in the industry.

Conducting Third-party audits of manufacturing facilities provide an unbiased evaluation of cleanliness and safety, ensuring that products are sourced from facilities that maintain the highest standards, mitigating risks and upholding consumer confidence. All the factories Nemco works with have passed third-party audit standards.

As required by Federal law, Nemco secures food safety certificates on all of its food products. This demonstrates compliance with national standards, instilling consumer trust and regulatory confidence. These certificates ensure product safety and uphold the supply chain's integrity in a global market focused on food safety.

It's essential for a food importer to have the insight to know what and when to buy, as this strategic awareness ensures the procurement of fresh and relevant products, aligning with market trends and customer demands. Nemco’s knowledge enhances its competitiveness in the industry and optimizes inventory management, ultimately driving business success in the food import industry.

Procurement

Our comprehensive Shipping and Warehousing services encompass the efficient transportation of international food products via ocean cargo and inland freight, coupled with secure warehousing solutions to ensure timely and reliable distribution.

Our meticulous food import documentation process streamlines the complexities of international trade, handling the necessary paperwork, permits, and compliance requirements with precision. We ensure that all regulatory and customs documentation is accurate and up-to-date, facilitating a smooth and hassle-free importation experience for our clients.

Our FDA certifications service is of paramount importance, as it ensures that our imported food products meet the stringent standards set by the Food and Drug Administration. These certifications not only demonstrate our commitment to food safety but also provide the necessary assurance to consumers, retailers, and regulatory authorities, fostering trust and compliance in the industry.

Our unique capability to offer products in smaller quantities, such as a single pallet, is instrumental in alleviating the financial burden on our customers. This flexibility allows businesses to manage their inventory more efficiently, reduce upfront costs, and optimize their cash flow. By providing the option to purchase only what they need, we empower our customers with a cost-effective and adaptable approach to sourcing, facilitating smoother financing and enhancing their overall financial stability.

Food Safety

Ensuring the safety of the American food supply is a paramount concern in our industry. At Nemco, our mission revolves around the acquisition of safe, high-quality food products from global factories. In the contemporary landscape, numerous reliable canners and food producers exist worldwide. We maintain our commitment to quality and safety through consistent supplier product and facility oversight, which includes thorough physical plant inspections, meticulous plant audit documentation maintenance, and independent product testing conducted by an FDA-certified laboratory. We unwaveringly uphold quality and safety, refusing to sacrifice quality for price.

Nemco proudly stands as an early adopter of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), a pivotal law designed to enhance accountability among suppliers of domestic and imported food products. While the government progressively refines and implements FSMA's provisions, our company has already taken proactive steps to comply. We diligently evaluate each segment of our supply chain to ensure adherence, traceability, and accountability for both existing and forthcoming regulations.
