Assigned from the certificate's own product lines (AI classifier citing verbatim lines, or keyword rules as fallback); each type shows the lines it came from. With a handling scope, only handled lines count: crop, livestock and wild-crop lines are what the operation grows. A type says what the certificate lists, not that it packs that type for clients. source, unchanged since Oct 21, 2026
Client packing evidence Packs/processes for clients
    Graded from the certificate: packs/processes for clients (a client-profile, contract, co-packing, toll or custom service line) > private-label product lines > storage/distribution for clients only. Where the certificate says less, a sentence on the operation's own website grades the same way (private or white label alone is a private-label line). source, unchanged since Oct 21, 2026
