According to the sources of Daily Notable, The Punjab Food Authority (PFA) has sealed the snacks factory and confiscated 7,000kg of unwholesome food over violations while carrying out a raid under its Director General Mudassar Riaz Malik.
He said that the food safety team took action against the factory due to preparing snacks for children with loose colours and germs-infested spices. He said the food business operator also failed to ensure hygienic working environment and labelling rules defined in the Punjab Pure Food Regulations.
