"The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has suspended the Safe Food for Canadians licence of Goodfood a Montreal-based meal kit and grocery delivery service. There is no recall associated with this suspension, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) said in a news release published on Wednesday. Under the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations, food businesses that manufacture, process, preserve, or package food to be sent across provincial or territorial borders are required to hold a licence."
"The CFIA says the licence suspension will be lifted when it is determined that corrective measures have been taken by the licence holder. In the case of Goodfood, the non-compliances were related to part four of the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations, which addresses preventive controls, the federal agency said. If corrective action is not taken within 90 days after the suspension, the licence may be cancelled, the statement reads."
"According to the CFIA, Safe Food for Canadians licences can be suspended: For failure to comply with the SFCA, the FDA and their related regulations. For default of payment of any fee related to the licence. If continuing to conduct the licensed activity puts the public at risk of injury. Goodfood Market Corp. did not immediately respond to a request for comment."
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency suspended Goodfood’s Safe Food for Canadians licence after identifying non-compliances related to preventive controls under part four of the regulations. No product recall accompanies the licence suspension. The licence will be reinstated once corrective measures are verified by the agency. If corrective action is not completed within 90 days, the licence may be cancelled. The regulations require licences for businesses that manufacture, process, preserve or package food crossing provincial or territorial borders. The CFIA lists grounds for suspension including regulatory non-compliance, fee payment defaults, or activities that pose public safety risks. Goodfood Market Corp. did not respond to requests for comment.
