Olam Chile Peppers LLC – FDA 483, Oct 1, 2019

An FDA inspection of Mizkan America Inc. in Deming, NM, revealed a significant issue with the plant's construction, which did not facilitate proper maintenance and sanitary operations. Inspectors observed floors and walls in disrepair, with cracks, pits, and standing water, particularly around the jalapeno glass jar line. These conditions pose a risk to product quality and safety.
