The FDA website indicates that the citations were delivered to the company as follows:
'You chose to comply with the requirements for a very small importer, but you did not document that you meet the definition of a very small importer before initially and annually each year after importing food as a very small importer.'
'As a very small importer, you did not obtain written assurance, before importing a food and every 2 years after initially importing a food, that your foreign supplier produced the food in compliance with process and procedures that provide the required level of public health protection.'
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplaces and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly for businesses to consistently make smarter business decisions for the future.
The FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the manufacturing and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality, according to its website.
