Contact Us TodayMississauga's exporters treat FDA compliance as core infrastructure, not an add-on: with US-bound truck freight rolling down the 401 corridor daily and air cargo lifting from Pearson next door, the city's manufacturers and consolidators live inside FSMA's reach continuously. The compliance stack for a Mississauga plant selling stateside runs from FDA facility registration and biennial renewal through a PCQI-overseen food safety plan, US labelling conformity, and smooth cooperation with each American customer's FSVP importer.
Yes — FDA conducts foreign facility inspections, and refusing one has automatic consequences: your food becomes subject to import refusal under FSMA. Inspections of Canadian plants are typically scheduled in advance and focus on the Preventive Controls rule. Many firms also encounter FDA indirectly through their US customers' FSVP audits. We run mock FDA inspections using their own inspection approach so the real one is routine.
Import alerts allow detention without physical examination, and escaping one requires petitioning FDA with evidence — typically five consecutive compliant shipments with third-party testing, plus documentation of corrected root cause. Prevention is far cheaper: knowing which alerts cover your commodity category and building the evidence file preemptively. We assess your exposure and prepare the compliance history FDA petitions demand.
