## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: Sahara Enterprise Inc.
- Inspection Date: 2026-03-16
- Product Type: Food
- Office Name: Division of Northeast Imports 
- Summary: Sahara Enterprise Inc., located in Philadelphia, received an FDA Warning Letter following an inspection conducted from February 27 to March 16, 2026. This evaluation was performed to determine compliance with the Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements mandated by the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and 21 CFR part 1, subpart L. These regulations require importers to verify that foreign food products meet U.S. safety standards. The primary violation identified is the company"s failure to develop, maintain, and follow an FSVP for any of its imported goods. Specifically, the FDA noted the absence of safety programs for products such as dry dough mix, Turkish delight candy, and baklava. Although the company previously expressed intent to seek third-party assistance and learn the requirements, they failed to provide any supporting documentation or completed records to show corrective actions. To avoid further regulatory measures, such as the refusal of imported goods or placement on a detention list, Sahara Enterprise Inc. must respond within 15 working days. Their response must include comprehensive documentation, including copies of newly established FSVPs and evidence of their implementation, to prove they are now in compliance with federal food safety laws.
