The food safety in a disastrous condition in Armenia
Even a superficial inspection held in one region of the republic
shows that the food safety is in a disastrous condition in Armenia.
After the research held in the region of Shirak during one week the
RA State Food Safety Inspectorate revealed a number of products sold
in violation of the requirements of the RA legislation. Particularly
it was revealed that in 5 shops the 'President' butter (200 g), in
8 shops cream butter 'Slatko', in 12 meat dumplings 'SamRoza', in 6 G.
Grigoryan's khinkali and meat dumplings, in 25 'Frangosul', in 33
'Fazenda', in 12 'Pilgrims', in 10 'Gastar', in 14 frozen chickens of
'Golden too', in 45 'Doux', in 48 frozen chicken 'Seara', in 43 frozen
chicken chest and chicken 'Sadia', in 4 chicken hip of unknown origin,
in 14 fish caviar 'Sanich', in 7 'Sprat' and 'Sardine' pickles of
'Proliv, Southern Manufacturer' LLC, in 9 'Favorite', in 8 'Darinka'
and in 8 'Sardine' pickles of 'Vostok', in 8 'Sprat' pickles of the
company 'Pickles sprat Latvia LLC Zvani', in 34 Vietnamese pangasius
fish did not have Armenian language labeling. In 8 shops 'Rossini'
cutlets (5 kg package) did not have any labeling at all.
Additionally, chicken lungs of 'Havitsa' brand were reported without
any production date in 26 shops, fish pickles of 'Eco' brand with
the expiry date closed with the double date in 29 shops. In 22
shops semi-smoked sausage and cutlets of 'Razmik 92' of Gyumri were
reported without the production and expiry date, in 14 shops Kiev
cutlets and meat dumplings of 'Arsen and Gohar' LLC with incomplete
labeling (only the content and expiry date indicated) and many other
violations. In 5 shops frozen chicken chest was reported without the
producer's details. In 28 shops chicken legs of 'Araqs' were reported
without labeling. In 13 shops meat balls of 'Tamara Fruit', in 9 shops
chicken poultry of 'Oshakan' poultry farm, in 14 broyler chicken of
'Shirak' poultry farm and many other products all reported without
production date. It's far not the end of the exhaustive list.
The mass character of violations and the dangerous and threatening
situation in the food market are obvious. However the State Food
Safety Inspectorate of the RA Ministry of Agriculture fined neither the
producers of the above-mentioned products sold in violation of the law
nor the shops selling all those products, explaining that mentioned
violations were not revealed as a result of inspection, but by other
examinations, in which case they have no right to impose a fine.
This is the legislation of our country. It's absolutely interesting,
whether the mentioned Inspectorate held inspection in the same shops
and among local producers after revealing the violations, and if not,
then why, if yes then what was revealed as a result of the inspection
and what measures have been taken to fine the law violators.
