Consolidated Grain and Barge is a leading grain origination company that deals primarily with Japanese customers buying non-gmo corn and soybeans.  In an effort to ensure quality grains are being grown CGB has “Incorporated ISO 9001:2008 into their management systems.”  This information is important for the end consumer to know that the grain he is purchasing has been through rigorous testing and met a multitude of quality control measures.   

The ISO certification program offers a benefit for the consumer in knowing that what he bought is to the exact specifications he has requested.  This results in the consumer paying a premium for the grain which in turn allows the grower to receive a premium above the market price, as well.  CGB plays a key role in managing this crucial relationship between the grower and the end consumer.  Providing ISO quality certifications will ensure a consistent quality product for many years to come.
