There was one company in a city associated with Columbia County that received an FDA citation as a result of one inspection conducted in the county in 2024, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
No companies were cited in the previous year.
The only citation issued in the county was delivered as ‘You did not test and examine containers often enough to ensure that the containers suitably protected the food from leakage and 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.
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 and quality.
