Do you serve businesses in Rethymno?+
Yes. We are based in Athens and work with companies in Rethymno and across Crete, combining on-site visits with remote support so distance is never an obstacle.
Which ISO standards are most relevant in Rethymno?+
Locally, the most in-demand are ISO 22000, HACCP, ISO 9001, ISO 14001. At the free assessment we recommend the optimal standard for your business.
Can the certification be funded?+
Yes. The cost of ISO certification is an eligible expense in many ΕΣΠΑ programmes for SMEs. We inform you of active programmes and the funding rate.
How long does it take?+
When your business is already ready, we can schedule the audit and certificate issuance in under 3 weeks. Typically, though, it takes 2–4 months from the initial assessment to the audit, with a clear timeline from the start and support all the way to the certificate.
Do I need to be physically present, or can it be done remotely?+
Critical steps (the initial on-site mapping, staff training, and the mock audit) work best in person. Everything else — documentation, reviews, calls — runs remotely, so distance from Athens is never a real obstacle for Rethymno.
Can I certify more than one standard at once?+
Yes, and in Rethymno it is often the more efficient route — where two of the standards above overlap, we build one combined system instead of two separate ones, which lowers both cost and time.
Are there quality consultants in Rethymno?+
Certivo serves businesses across the country, including Rethymno, without needing a local office — critical steps happen on-site, the rest remotely, with the same dedicated consultant throughout.
