Boar’s Head COVID-19 Response
For over 115 years, Boar’s Head Brand has been committed to supporting our communities and providing the highest quality fine crafted foods. Throughout our history, we have seen our country navigate hardships and are proud to have witnessed the moments where we banded together and persevered. This situation is unlike anything any of us has ever experienced. Nevertheless, the human spirit is strong and resilient, and together, we will come back stronger.
As part of the nation’s critical infrastructure to keep America fed, we, along with independent authorized Local Purveyors of the Boar’s Head Brand, are working hard to make our products available nationwide. We are closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation on a daily basis and following all the most recent guidelines and recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), as well as local and state health departments and other government regulatory agencies.
Food Safety & Product Quality
At Boar’s Head, food safety is always a top priority and an integral part of our product quality. Each of our facilities has extensive safety measures in place and maintains an extremely hygienic and sanitary environment. We abide by Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) as required by United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, and we are Safe Quality Food (SQF) Program Certified.
In addition, in respect to the safe consumption of our products, the FDA notes that there is no evidence of food or food packaging being associated with COVID-19. However, it is still important to follow standard food preparation practices such as washing hands and surfaces and refrigerating foods promptly
