Patidar Trade, Inc., a food importer based in New Jersey, failed to establish and maintain a Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) as required by federal law for imported food products including wheat flour, rice flour, and phool makhana. During an FDA inspection conducted from August to September 2021, investigators found the company had not developed, maintained, or followed any FSVP documentation for the foods it imported, representing a significant violation of section 805 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and 21 CFR part 1, subpart L. The company failed to respond to the FDA's Form 483a observations issued at the conclusion of the inspection, further demonstrating non-compliance with food safety verification requirements.
