Mostly international corporations, retailers and Govt. regulatory authorities code of conduct requirements are derived from this standard, if any organization implements this standard, it will automatically fulfil the expectations of their customers and stakeholders regarding food safety management system. Global Gap is the regulatory requirement imposed by many countries on suppliers to ship any product to them.

GLOBAL G.A.P. is the current standard previously it was known as EUROGAP. It is a part of ISO family and GLOBAL G.A.P. is the initiative of retailers belonging to the Euro-Retailer produce working group. British retailers working together with supermarkets of continental Europe become aware of consumers growing concerns regarding product safety, environmental impact and the health, safety and welfare of workers and then finally they harmonized their own standard.
