Anne Arundel Today

There were three companies in a city associated with Anne Arundel County that received FDA citations as a result of three inspections conducted in the county throughout 2023, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a 25% decrease from the number of companies cited in the previous year.

The citations in the county include:

• You did not conduct operations under conditions and controls necessary to minimize the potential for contamination of food.
• You did not take a reasonable measure or precaution related to personnel practices.
• Your equipment and utensils were not designed and constructed to be adequately cleaned or maintained to protect against contamination.

All of the companies cited should take voluntary actions to correct their managing operations.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

The FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality, according to its website.
