Ft Worth Times

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

This is a 100% increase over the number of companies cited in the previous year.

Of the 21 citations issued, the most common citations were 'You did not establish written procedures to ensure that you import foods only from approved foreign suppliers' and 'You did not document that you approved a foreign supplier based on an evaluation that you conducted of the foreign supplier's performance and the risk posed by a food or based on a review and assessment of another entity's evaluation of a foreign supplier's performance and the risk posed by a food'.

Most of the companies cited were involved in the Food and Cosmetics sector.

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.
