Integrated Management System
Obolon is a leader in implementing a quality management system.
ISO 9000 is a series of international standards regulating the requirements for the corporation's quality management system. ISO standards are regularly revised and updated.
In 1998, Obolon was the first company in the Ukrainian food industry to obtain an ISO 9000 quality management certificate. This changed the corporation's business philosophy and organizational culture, and introduced a system of total product quality management.
"We were the first to receive an ISO 9001 Certificate among the food industry companies. It was a breakthrough, first of all for us, and a turning point in the corporation's history. Today, the corporation has an integrated management system based on four standards; every year, we confirm to international auditors our compliance with all standard requirements".

This system has a recommendatory character. ISO certification is conducted by specifically accredited certification authorities. Obolon cooperates on a regular basis with DEKRA Certification Kit (Germany).
