Meditco, Inc., a Houston-based food and beverage importer, failed to comply with Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act during an FDA inspection conducted November 8-15, 2023. The company did not perform required risk-based verification activities to ensure that imported human and animal foods met applicable U.S. food safety standards, representing significant violations of 21 CFR Part 1, Subpart L. This was a recurring compliance issue, as the company had been inspected previously in 2020, 2022, and again in 2023, with the firm committing to develop a comprehensive FSVP program within 6-8 months from its December 2023 response.
