FDA 483 - Family Dollar Distribution Inc. - February 11, 2022

An FDA inspection of Family Dollar Distribution Inc. revealed a severe and widespread rodent infestation impacting human food, animal food, and drug products throughout the facility. The firm also failed to maintain its plant in a clean and sanitary condition, exhibited significant structural disrepair, and lacked adequate quality control procedures for handling contaminated products and ensuring proper storage conditions for drugs. These conditions led to the distribution of potentially contaminated products and the removal of over 1100 rodent carcasses post-fumigation.
