ABOUT

OUR STORY

As you may know, Where Food Comes From, Inc. was originally founded as IMI Global in 1995 with a focus around traceability in the livestock industry. In 2006, founders, John and Leann Saunders grew the company by diversifying and WFCF acquired additional businesses to round out its certification portfolio and IMI Global became a division of WFCF.  Below you will see the various divisions of WFCF that have been acquired over the years. Ask us about bundling various programs into one audit for you!

With a focus on fisheries and aquaculture production, the Postelsia team aims to have a positive influence on the world by connecting producers, buyers and consumers.
