From the procurement and storage of raw materials to the manufacture and distribution of finished goods, Serano's manufacturing processes have been established with the goal of producing the highest possible quality for the lowest possible cost. In order to accomplish this goal, Serano's manufacturing processes and quality control tools are focused around the following key areas:

. :  Supplies of raw materials  : .

The quality of our finished products depends on the quality of the raw materials used in the manufacturing process. Our thirty-year industry experience and our strong relationships with domestic and international suppliers of raw materials, allows us to procure the right type of materials at the right point of time in order to keep the manufacturing process running at optimal efficiency.

. :  Process and department integration  : .

The high degree of coordination and integration of our departments facilitates the efficient management of our food manufacturing operations. This integration is essential for enhancing communications across departments, improving quality, lowering costs and speeding up the distribution process. Serano also employs a series of decision support tools based on a wide variety of stock replenishment processes for managing inventory levels and material flow, while minimizing manufacturing and distribution costs.

. :  Manufacturing procedures and practices  : .

Given the wide variety of products we manufacture as well as differences in the manufacturing procedures for each product, we rely on production managers whose main responsibility is to ensure that the necessary procedures for the manufacturing of each product are constantly followed.

. :  Storage procedures (raw materials and finished goods)  : .

Improper storage can impact the quality of our raw materials as well as finished products. Therefore, we have developed the necessary facilities for storing our raw materials and finished products under proper conditions of temperature and humidity. Moreover, our storage procedures are consistent with the first-in-first-out rotation principle to ensure that the removal or inventory is done in a systematic way, whereby earlier stock items are used first.

. :  In-process records  : .

In-process record keeping allows us to maintain a daily manufacturing log and gives us the opportunity to identify problem areas and make changes to prevent reoccurrence. This measure ensures that both qualitative and quantitative controls and goals are met.

. :  Laboratory tests  : .

Throughout the manufacturing process we conduct a number of microbiological tests to ensure that our high standards of quality are met. This includes taking samples from both raw materials as well as finished products and maintaining detailed records of the results during different stages of the manufacturing process.
