Nestle Purina PetCare Company – FDA 483, Nov 10, 2021

Nestle Purina PetCare Company's animal food manufacturing facility in Allentown, PA, was cited for significant deficiencies in its food safety plan and ingredient management. The firm failed to evaluate known chemical hazards like drug residues in its beef, pork, and poultry ingredients, and also did not accurately identify or label raw materials, leading to unknown and unlabeled ingredients in storage. These issues indicate a lack of adequate controls to ensure the safety and proper handling of animal food ingredients.
