There was one company in a city associated with Allegan County that received FDA citations as a result of one inspection conducted in the county over the fourth quarter of 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 quarter.

The citations in the county were 'You did not take adequate precautions to prevent contamination of animal food, use testing procedures to identify sanitation failures and conduct all animal food manufacturing under such conditions and controls to protect against contamination of animal food' and 'You did not maintain animal food under conditions that will minimize the potential for growth of undesirable microorganisms during manufacturing, processing, packing, and holding'.

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.
