Retailers begin the GSAAA accreditation process by submitting a pre-accreditation application form, showcasing their commitment to meeting industry standards.
Upon expressing interest, GSAAA sends a comprehensive accreditation application form, requiring detailed information about the store's operations and adherence to standards.
Alongside the application form, stores provide necessary documents such as licenses, certificates, and quality evaluations to validate their compliance with GSAAA criteria.
GSAAA arranges for a peer assessor to visit the store, conducting thorough assessments of its premises, products, and customer service practices to ensure alignment with accreditation standards.
Our peer evaluator will submit an evaluation report of your business, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses, and providing the final verdict on whether your business qualifies for accreditation. You will be notified of your eligibility status within 7 days of the visit.
After the evaluation, GSAAA's accreditation panel reviews the assessor's report to determine if the store meets the criteria for accreditation. If approved, the store receives official recognition as an accredited establishment, allowing them to display GSAAA's seal-of-approval.
