There was one company in a city associated with Monroe County that received FDA citations as a result of one inspection conducted in the county throughout 2023, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This is an increase over the number of companies cited in the previous year.

The citations in the county include:

  • Your plant was not constructed and designed to facilitate maintenance and sanitary operations.
  • You did not maintain your plant in a clean and sanitary condition.
  • Your equipment and utensils were not designed and constructed to be adequately cleaned or maintained to protect against contamination.

The company cited should take a voluntary action to correct its 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.
