Massive ANSVSA controls: Hundreds of sanctions and dozens of activity suspensions for food irregularities

Following a large-scale control campaign conducted at the national level last week, ANSVSA imposed 429 fines totaling over 4 million lei for non-compliance with food safety regulations.

In addition to financial penalties, inspectors also issued 30 orders to suspend activities for establishments that presented serious deficiencies, particularly regarding hygiene issues, improper storage, and lack of product traceability. This action underscores the authorities' efforts to eliminate risks to public health in places such as restaurants, butcher shops, and food warehouses.
