Maryland's soft drink bottling sector operates within federal frameworks (FSMA for food, FDA GDP for pharma, USDA-APHIS for export, OSHA for handling) plus any state-specific overlays. USP supplies pallets aligned to these regulatory regimes with documentation matching audit requirements.
BOL, packing list, grade certifications standard. Heat-treated loads add IPPC stamps and ISPM-15 documentation. Pharma-grade loads add batch records. Food-grade loads add FSMA Sanitary Transportation Rule certifications. All documentation ships electronically before delivery.
50 pallets per order minimum on buy-side. Sell-side (buyback) minimum is 250 pallets per single-size load. Volume tiers kick in automatically as cumulative monthly volume increases - 500+/week accounts qualify for standing-order programs with reserved delivery slots.
