Summary
Fanta Seafoods, a seafood processor in Guyana, was found to have serious violations of seafood Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) regulations during an FDA inspection in January 2023, rendering their mackerel and shrimp products adulterated under federal law. The facility failed to conduct or implement compliant HACCP plans as required by 21 CFR Part 123, and despite acknowledging corrective actions in May 2023, the company had not submitted written corrective actions for FDA review as of the September 2023 warning letter. The violations rendered the seafood products subject to regulatory action due to being prepared, packed, or held under conditions that may have rendered them injurious to health.
