FDA 483 - Pepperidge Farm South Bend, IN Bakery Depot - September 29, 2023

The FDA inspected Pepperidge Farm's South Bend, IN Bakery Dept. and issued a Form 483 with two observations. The inspection revealed issues with plant grounds not protecting against food contamination due to pest harborage areas and inadequate plant design leading to unsecured and unsupervised storage of bread products accessible to the public. These conditions indicate potential for food contamination and lack of control over product integrity.
