There was one company in a city associated with Santa Cruz County that received an FDA citation as a result of one inspection conducted in the county over the third quarter of 2025, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This is a 50% decrease from the number of companies cited in the previous quarter.
The only citation issued in the county was delivered as ‘You have not implemented a written sanitation standard operating procedure (SSOP)’.
The company cited should take a voluntary action to correct its managing operations.
The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.
According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.
