Food Import Testing in Canada: Partnering with PBR Laboratories to Ensure Safety and Compliance

img
Why Food Import Testing Matters

Canada’s food import industry plays a crucial role in meeting consumer demand, but it comes with strict safety and compliance requirements. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Health Canada enforce rigorous regulations to protect public health and ensure quality. Imported foods must meet these standards as well as global benchmarks like Codex Alimentarius.

Failing to meet these standards can lead to food recalls, reputational damage, and financial loss—risks no importer or producer can afford to take. Reliable food testing is not just a requirement; it’s a safeguard for your business and your customers.
