  • QMS Scope for Food Product Distribution - Can I Limit It?

    Hi everyone, I'm setting up a Quality Management System (QMS) for my food product distribution business and have a question about defining the scope. We sell and distribute to both retail (supermarkets, small stores) and foodservice (restaurants, manufacturers). My main question is: Can I limit the products covered by my QMS? For example, if I sell orange juice, coffee powder, and milk powder, can I choose to only include the coffee and milk powder in the QMS scope? Is this a common or recommended practice? Any advice on defining the scope of my QMS in this situation would be greatly appreciated!
