Restaurants
Leading with Integrity
Certified restaurants commit to sourcing with intention, preparing food with care, and operating in alignment with human and environmental health, even when it’s harder.
Our Mission
Fixing the food system is the single greatest lever we can pull to end the chronic disease epidemic in America.
The American food system was built for maximum scale and affordability. This has left consumers sicker, farmers struggling, and operators without a credible way to stand out.
ERRA has developed a rigorous, science-based standard that audits ingredient integrity, sourcing standards, and processing practices across restaurants, schools, institutions and grocery stores to build trust with consumers.
ERRA Certified provides consumers something the modern food system rarely does: transparency. With ERRA Certified, there are no vague marketing claims. Every restaurant, grocer, or producer is independently audited against rigorous standards for ingredient integrity and handling.
Aligning with a rigorous, independently defined standard, operators signal real integrity in a sea of unverified claims. That builds trust, improves brand loyalty, and creates market differentiation. Certification streamlines sourcing expectations, clarifies supplier requirements, and provides a defensible framework for quality assurance, reducing risk while strengthening operational discipline.
Every ERRA Certified operation raises the bar. As more partners join the ecosystem, the industry will shift. One kitchen, one school, one grocer at a time.

Certified restaurants commit to sourcing with intention, preparing food with care, and operating in alignment with human and environmental health, even when it’s harder.
Certified schools put student health first — serving nutrient-dense, minimally processed meals, sourcing from trusted suppliers, and proving that real food belongs in every cafeteria, from the first tray to the last.
Certified grocers prioritize nutrient density and safety. Our audits ensure no APEEL coatings, microplastics, or pesticide residues make their way into your shopping cart — only foods that restore health from the soil up.
