JD's Market Inc., a food importer based in Washington, failed to develop, maintain, and follow a Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) for imported foods including jumbo raisins, dry plums, and after-meal snacks, in violation of section 805 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and 21 CFR part 1 subpart L. During remote and in-person inspections conducted in May 2021 and March 2019, FDA investigators identified significant compliance gaps in the company's risk-based verification activities required to ensure imported foods met applicable U.S. food safety standards. The company failed to respond to the FDA Form 483a observations issued on May 21, 2021, documenting these violations.
