Summary

Juquilita Mexican Imports LLC, a food importer in Renton, Washington, failed to develop, maintain, and follow a Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) for any of the foods it imported, including pasteurized string cheese, black mole, and pumpkin seeds, in violation of section 805 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and 21 CFR part 1, subpart L. The company did not respond to an FDA Form 483a issued following an inspection on February 2, 2024, which followed a prior inspection on December 14, 2022. The FSVP regulation requires importers to perform risk-based activities to verify that imported foods meet applicable U.S. food safety standards, which Juquilita Mexican Imports failed to do.
