In the third quarter of 2023, 20 Food and Cosmetics companies received 20 FDA inspections in Iowa, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This was the second highest number of inspections per type of company made by the FDA in Iowa, equalling 40.8% of all inspections in the third quarter of 2023.

Of all the Iowa companies involved in the Food and Cosmetics sector, The Foreign Candy Company, Inc. received the most citations from the FDA in the third quarter of 2023.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplaces and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly for businesses to consistently make smarter business decisions for the future.

The FDA is a government agency primarily responsible for monitoring the manufacturing and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety quality, according to its website.
