Agropur Choose Cognibox to Reach their Goals in Terms of Contractor’s Management

SIM is proud to announce a pan-Canadian agreement with the Agropur cooperative. In fact, since the beginning of July, Agropur took one step further in the implementation of a rigorous management and qualification process for a subset of their suppliers, in an initiative aimed in improving safety. Agropur will now rely on the Cognibox™ online solution. This secured platform will allow them to evaluate and control skills and training in order to ensure the respect of their rigorous norms in terms of liability, health and safety, environment, legislation and management.

Agropur will use Cognibox for the management of contractors in their plant across Canada. From now on, in order to perform work at any of Agropur Canadian plant, contractors will have to be approved through the Cognibox system.

« This is a great news both for us and for the Cognibox community members since, with this agreement, we are consolidating and extending the pool of contractors all across the country. The Cognibox contract suppliers’ network will have access to more qualified and efficient contractors, while contractors will be visible to several new potential clients. Moreover, with a major world player such as Agropur, this news confirms that we have become a major player in contractors’ management in the food industry » says Chantal Trépanier, CEO at SIM.

This partnership shows Agropur’s commitment to do business with the best-performing suppliers and to ensure the workers’ safety, not only thanks to companies’ qualification, but as well to the employees’ skills and training management.
