KRAV
KRAV is a key player in the organic market in Sweden. We develop organic standards, we inspect to these standards and we promote the KRAV label. KRAV is organised as an incorporated association with, at present, 29 members. They represent farmers, processors, trade and also consumer, environmental and animal welfare interests.
KRAV has about 70 employees, nearly half of whom are full time inspectors.
Around the World
Organic production is present all around the world. KRAV is an active member of IFOAM – International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements, an umbrella organisation which gathers organisations for farmers, scientists, educationalists and certifiers from almost every country in the world. KRAV takes an active part in developing the IFOAM standards and also works to influence the EU organic production legislation.
Growing organic market
A growing number of Swedish food processors export organic produce. There is also an increasing market in Sweden for imported produce. For information in these matters, contact KRAV.
Realiable partner
KRAV’s standards meet the IFOAM Basic Standards and the EEC regulation for organic production. KRAV is accredited by IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements). KRAV is authorised by The Swedish National Board of Agriculture and The Swedish National Food Administration to carry out inspection of organic production in Sweden. |
