## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Juicer Connections, Inc.
- Inspection Date: 2025-09-08
- Product Type: other
- Office Name: Los Angeles District Office
- Summary: Juicer Connections, Inc., located in Vernon, California, underwent an FDA inspection from August 12 to September 8, 2025. The resulting report identifies several critical safety and sanitation violations under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. A primary concern is the facility"s inadequate Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan. The FDA found that the company failed to demonstrate that its processes consistently achieve the required reduction in harmful microorganisms for over two dozen juice products. These safety plan deficiencies, including the failure to address specific viruses and conduct proper validation studies, are repeat violations dating back to 2019. Sanitation practices were also found to be severely lacking. Investigators observed live and dead cockroaches throughout the production and office areas, fly infestations, and structural gaps that allowed pest entry. Equipment maintenance was poor, with rust and grime found on blenders and heavily damaged cutting boards. Additionally, improper hose handling and a lack of backflow prevention devices created risks of water contamination. Administrative failures included incomplete production records, discrepancies in product counts, and a consistent failure to review critical logs for temperature monitoring and equipment calibration. Juicer Connections, Inc. is required to respond to these findings by discussing objections or submitting a detailed plan for corrective action to the FDA to ensure future compliance.
