There was one company in a city associated with San Benito County that received FDA citations as a result of one inspection conducted in the county over the second quarter of 2025, according to reports from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This is unchanged from the number of companies cited in the previous quarter.
The citations in the county include:
- You did not maintain your plant in a clean and sanitary condition.
- You did not clean and sanitize your utensils or equipment as frequently as necessary to protect against allergen cross-contact and contamination of food.
- You did not identify an allergen preventive control for a hazard when one was needed.
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.
According to its website, 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.
