The summer seasonal food chain inspection was successfully completed. During the two-month series of inspections, the food chain supervision specialists examined around 1,200 units and almost 1,500 product batches in dozens of target areas. The overwhelmingly positive results, as well as the revealed errors, clearly demonstrate the success and necessity of the work carried out for food safety, the Ministry of Agriculture (AM) announced in its summary published on Tuesday.

This summer’s seasonal inspection was ordered by Márton Nobilis, the Secretary of State responsible for the food industry and trade policy of the Ministry of Agriculture, from June 14, focusing on one important target area and its product range.

The official action, which covered most of the summer, was carried out by Nébih, as well as specialists from the county government offices and district offices, under the direction of the National Food Chain Safety Office (Nébih).

The inspection series focused on popular product ranges and popular locations during the season.

The inspectors examined, among other things, summer camps, festivals, and restaurants around Lake Balaton and Lake Tisza.

Among the target areas were beach buffets, street food and tented fan zones set up for the Football EC. The inspectors also inspected grilled cheeses, alcoholic beverages, plant protection products, as well as preparations for cats against external parasites.

The regular operation of primary producers and the distribution of watermelons, which are the hit product of the season, could not be left out, and in the summer heat, the experts also paid close attention to live animal shipments, the AM listed.
