FDA WARNING_LETTER - GREENWORLD FOOD EXPRESS (USA) LLC - April 02, 2026

On April 24, 2026, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning letter to Greenworld Food Express LLC, located in Taylor, Michigan, following a Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) inspection conducted on April 2, 2026. The inspection revealed that the company is in significant violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and specific federal regulations (21 CFR part 1, subpart L). The primary issue is that Greenworld Food Express LLC failed to develop, maintain, and follow an FSVP for the products it imports. Specifically, the FDA noted that the company had no verification programs in place for products including Halwa Pistachio, Royal Zaatar, and Tahini. Although the company responded to initial inspection observations by requesting time to achieve compliance, the FDA found this response insufficient because it lacked supporting documentation of actual corrective actions. The FDA has mandated that the company provide a written response within 15 working days, detailing specific steps taken to correct these violations and providing evidence such as copies of newly established FSVPs. Failure to address these deficiencies may result in the FDA refusing the admission of imported foods or placing the products on import alerts, which allows for detention without physical examination.
