Food monitoring
As the lower food and meat hygiene authority, the department is responsible for monitoring and complying with legal regulations in the production, treatment and marketing of food, cosmetics and so-called consumer goods, such as food packaging and toys.
We follow up on information and consumer complaints regarding company hygiene or the quality of food and carry out risk-oriented regular checks and sampling.
