Certification Bodies

Certification Bodies make annual
inspections to ensure coffee producers
comply with the UTZ CERTIFIED
Code of Conduct.

A Certification Body (CB) is an independent third-party certifier. When approved by UTZ CERTIFIED, the CBs conduct annual certification inspections of coffee producers to determine whether they comply with the UTZ CERTIFIED Code of Conduct and Chain of Custody requirements.
