FAMI-QS: a commitment to quality that unites Nuproxa Switzerland and its affiliates in Latin America

By Ana Paula Barp Brandt, Quality Director of the Nuproxa Group

During Nuproxa Quality Week, we celebrate the values that underpin our commitment to excellence. One of the pillars of this journey is FAMI-QS certification, an international code of good practice for special ingredients for animal nutrition.

At Nuproxa Switzerland, FAMI-QS implementation and certification represents more than technical compliance—it is a clear expression of our commitment to safety, traceability, and regulatory compliance. And this commitment is being expanded: the Nuproxa Group is conducting a strategic project to implement and certify FAMI-QS in its affiliates in Latin America.

We already have two duly certified affiliates: Nuproxa Mexico and Nuproxa Chile. The next affiliate is Nuproxa Colombia, which is working hard to implement a quality system in order to obtain certification.

This move reinforces our role as an integrated and responsible group and positions us as pioneers in the region. Few companies of Nuproxa’s size in Latin America have adopted this international standard, which makes this initiative a competitive advantage and a concrete demonstration of our commitment to delivering differentiated products and services with safety and reliability.

According to global data, only 2% of FAMI-QS certifications are in South America, while Asia accounts for 55% and Europe 34%. This figure highlights how limited adherence to the international standard still is in the region, reinforcing Nuproxa’s pioneering character and the importance of our project in raising the level of quality in the Latin American market.

FAMI-QS certification is not just a seal — it is part of our identity and our vision for the future.
