Do you know exactly what you're eating, where it came from, how it was processed, and its true quality?

Integral to the culture and operating practices at CSS is the care and attention to detail we provide with each and every CSS order.  

To this end — and built in to our name — is a unique, third-party provided CERTIFICATION that we include with each purchase to ensure freshness and safety. To our knowledge, CSS is the first and only retailer in our industry to do this.

Using the services of EuroFins — a world leader in bioanalytical services for food service industries — CSS worked hand in hand with some of the world's best research chemists to design customized analysis parameters appropriate for each and every product we sell.

Beef is tested in four separate areas to make sure there are no potentially harmful organic bacteria present that could cause problems. In addition, on-site USDA inspectors in our plant oversee every aspect of all our day-to-day food handling and packing operations. As our heritage stems from serving commercial customers who demand nothing but the the best, safeguarding your health and providing the highest quality is the CSS norm.

Finfish and Shellfish undergo tests to measure mercury, histamines, and other trace elements particular to each type of species and geographic region of origin.  On premises -- as with our meat — inspectors from the USDC oversee all operations involved in food handling, packaging, plant cleanliness and safety.  And to provide safe wholesome foods always, we use a multitude of CSS-designed food safety processes and programs throughout our plants that are in line with the GFSI (Global Food Safety Initiative) and the BAP (Best Aquaculture Practices) Seafood Processing Standards.

Suppliers' facilities and harvesting practices are inspected on a regular basis and have to meet a meticulous set of standards in order to do business with CSS.  Where your food comes from and how it was handled from original source to your table is of utmost importance.

As a result of all these rigid standards and TLC, a third-party certified analysis report, including nutrition information, is provided with each order.

And we back up everything we sell with no questions asked...

"CSS guarantees your full satisfaction and will gladly replace any product or refund its full purchase price if — FOR ANY REASON — it does not meet or exceed your expectations!"
