Unknown Company – FDA Warning Letter, May 20, 2026

Eherbs Imports, Inc., a San Diego-based company, received an FDA Warning Letter following a Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) inspection conducted from May 12 to May 20, 2026. The inspection revealed that the company failed to comply with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act by neglecting to develop and maintain verification programs for the foods it imports. Specifically, the FDA found that the company had no FSVP in place for products including bread, pasteurized string cheese, and amaranth candy. These regulations require importers to perform risk-based activities to ensure that foreign-produced food meets United States safety standards. Despite receiving prior notification of these observations via a Form FDA 483a, the company did not provide a response. The FDA now requires Eherbs Imports to submit a written response within 15 working days detailing the specific steps taken to rectify these violations. This response must include documentation of the newly implemented verification programs. Failure to comply may result in the FDA refusing entry of the company’s imported products into the country or placing them on a detention list without physical examination.
