During an inspection on May 9, 2024, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cited NUTCO, Inc. in Detroit for four violations concerning foodborne biological hazards, according to data posted on the FDA’s website.
The FDA website indicates that the citations were delivered to the company as follows:
- ‘You did not clean your non-food contact surface in a manner and as frequently as necessary to protect against.’
- ‘Your hazard analysis did not identify a hazard that required a preventive control.’
- ‘Your written sanitation preventive control, monitoring, corrective action and verification procedures were not appropriate to significantly minimize or prevent the hazard requiring a preventive control.’
- ‘Your written supply-chain program does not provide assurance that a hazard requiring a supply-chain-applied control has been significantly minimized or prevented.’
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.
