IDC USA Inc., a food importer based in Brooklyn, NY, failed to comply with Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements under section 805 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act for dried longan, dried dates, and dried fungus imported from foreign suppliers. During FDA inspections conducted in February 2019 and December 2020 through February 2021, the company did not adequately verify that these imported products met applicable U.S. food safety standards, despite providing some supplier documentation and private laboratory analyses. The violations were significant enough that the company was deemed non-compliant with FSVP regulations requiring risk-based verification activities for all imported human food products.
