Meet Damla
About you
I have worked in the food sector across production, quality, and training departments. Over time, I specialized in quality management systems and served as a lead auditor for ISO 9001, 22000, 14001, and Halal standards. Additionally, I provided consultancy services on other quality management systems and social compliance standards, particularly those approved by GFSI. I successfully completed my BRCGS Lead Auditor training and have organized lead audits and technical training sessions in various areas as an instructor.
Currently, I own and operate FEDS QUALITY Consultancy Training Audit services, where I work as a consultant, auditor, and trainer alongside my growing team. My goal is to deliver the highest quality service to companies seeking expertise in the BRCGS field, ensuring they receive safe, reliable, and efficient service. I am passionate about my work, my profession, and food safety management system standards, and I constantly strive to improve my skills and success in the industry.
