La Aldea Distributors Inc, a food and beverage importer based in San Antonio, Texas, failed to comply with Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements under 21 CFR part 1, subpart L during FDA inspections conducted in August-September 2021 and October-November 2022. The company did not perform the required risk-based activities to verify that imported foods were produced in compliance with U.S. food safety standards. Although the company acknowledged receipt of FDA's inspection observations and stated it was seeking third-party assistance to develop an FSVP, it failed to provide documentation demonstrating the specific corrective steps taken, preventing FDA's evaluation of the adequacy of its response.
