Consulting and Training for KFC, Pizza Hut & Taco Bell Suppliers
YUM! Brands require mandatory food safety audits for all manufacturers and transport suppliers servicing KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell. At QMS Audits, we specialise in developing, implementing, and supporting YUM!-compliant food safety management systems tailored to your business.
Our consultants can build your YUM! Food Safety Program as a stand-alone system or fully integrate it with your existing SQF, BRCGS, or FSSC 22000 certification. We provide comprehensive support including documentation development, internal audits, gap assessments, and non-conformance closeout assistance.
YUM! audits may be conducted as standalone two-day audits or as a one-day addendum aligned with your GFSI audit—resulting in a combined three-day assessment. We’ll help you prepare efficiently, reduce audit stress, and ensure ongoing compliance with YUM! Brands’ high standards.
What does Yum! Brand Audits cover?
QMS Audits has found the Yum! Brands audits are highly constructive, with the Yum! Brands QA representative determined to improve each process for the good of both Yum! Brands and the Supplier’s process. There is no tick and flick here. Each element is required to be thoroughly covered off.
The audit is tough with all documents to be produced within 10 minutes of request by the auditor. The Mock Recall needs to be completed within 2 hours.
Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Cpk Study Program
Yum Brands require each of its Australian suppliers to sincerely implement and maintain a continuous improvement program using SPC and Cpk. We have successfully implemented this program for one of our clients.
How often are the Yum! Brands Audits?
Yum! Brands audits and standard are unforgiving, specific and clear in their requirements. The audits are extremely thorough. Yum! Brands have the highest threshold of all second-party customer standards before moving suppliers to 12 monthly audits.
