Acquisition expands food safety and quality services for Australia and New Zealand

Food safety auditing, training and consulting company NSF International has acquired the Burwater Pacific Group, a NZ-based food safety training, auditing and consulting business.

Through this acquisition, NSF International will expand food safety and quality services to a wider New Zealand and Australia food manufacturer and retail market. The Burwater Pacific Group has worked closely with NSF International for several years, providing food safety auditing and training services for NSF International clients in New Zealand.

The Burwater Pacific Group, led by Nigel Burrows, will be renamed NSF Burwater and become part of NSF International’s Food Safety and Quality Division, reporting to Peter Bracher, managing director, NSF International Asia Pacific. NSF Burwater will continue to run the New Zealand School of Hygiene Ltd, the Food Auditor Ltd and Shoppers Anon Ltd (a mystery shopping service).

Both NSF International and the Burwater Pacific Group share a similar commitment to food safety, training and auditing services. With over 100 years of combined food safety experience, the NSF Burwater team will continue to lead food safety operations throughout New Zealand and Australia, supported by the added strength of NSF International’s technical experts in the US, Asia, Europe and Latin America.
