Food Import Detections and Seizures: The Current and Future Legal and Regulatory Environment - by Compliance Global Inc.

New Hyde Park, NY, September 29, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Overview: With $49 billion worth of imported foods, the FDA and its regulatory allies oversee more than 420,000 domestic and foreign facilities.

Importers of food products intended for introduction and consumption in the United States through international commerce are responsible for ensuring that the products are safe, sanitary, wholesome, and labelled according to U.S. requirements.

Over 70% of all seafood and 35% of all produce consumed in the U.S. are imported. If you think the FDA regulatory affairs is unable to effectively control imported food safety, think again. They do not work alone.

Food importers face special challenges from Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection, the FDA and USDA, Center for Disease Control, Food Safety Inspection Service, Agricultural and Marketing Services, Food and Nutrition Services, the USDA, U.S. Department of Commerce, Department of Defense, and Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
