2021
While New Zealand grappled with waves of uncertainty, we continued our remote work seamlessly. Despite delays affecting construction, our commitment to ensuring RMP registration and Organic registration and ensuring timely compliance was delivered within the client’s timeframe requirements.
Working to Udderly Organics’ requirements, Produco conducted a thorough Assessment to determine what would be suitable for their factory, also taking into account market scope and product scope.

Working to Udderly Organics’ requirements, Produco conducted a thorough Assessment to determine what would be suitable for their factory, also taking into account market scope and product scope.
Produco were responsible for planning, organising and overseeing the entire project.
This included managing the project team, and ensuring every aspect of the project contributed to its successful completion within critical timeframes.
Produco drafted all relevant risk management documentation. These documents used the existing baseline farm documentation, both for the Risk Management Programme (RMP) and Organic registrations.
The approach was to use custom-made solutions that were tailored to the client’s specific needs.
Current practices were taken into account while anticipating the future requirements that would be needed for continuous improvement as the business grew and evolved. This included registration of the site and product for RMP and Organic compliance.
Produco’s expertise in quality assurance, quality control, validation and regulatory compliance knowledge was leveraged to the full benefit of Udderly Organic.
One pivotal role was effective liaison with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and Auditors to ensure seamless compliance with industry standards and regulations and achieve success under strict timeframes.
Including training as part of the project was important to the client and Produco to educate about the registration process, timelines, requirements and responsibilities as part of having an RMP. Training staff to correctly conduct quality control and assurance processes was also included. The goal was to provide immediate solutions that required specialist knowledge and also to impart knowledge for long-term success.
In September 2021, we submitted the documentation to MPI. By October, the RMP registration was granted under certain conditions. It is common practice for conditions to accompany RMP registrations until the relevant evaluations and validations are completed. During this time, we maintained good communication channels with MPI and Auditors, ensuring our strategies were achievable and also cost-effective for our client, and considered the challenges imposed by the ongoing pandemic.
Produco is privileged to have worked with these passionate and principled individuals, who met every challenge with a laser focus on doing things right and never choosing shortcuts.
Bringing a new organic dairy brand to market presented a number of complex compliance and operational challenges.
Working collaboratively with Udderly Organic, we developed practical solutions that supported both regulatory requirements and the client’s sustainability goals.
By taking a proactive approach and working closely with the client, Produco helped identify effective solutions that supported both compliance requirements and Udderly Organic’s commitment to quality and sustainability.
