USDA Extends Deadline for Temporary Allowances for Labels Going to Retail

May 07, 2020 3:19 PM | Greene (Administrator)

The US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued an extension of enforcement discretion to accommodate the increase in products labeled for food-service or institutional use being re-routed to retail sales. The agency will exercise enforcement discretion until July 26, 2020. This applies to products that are labeled at a federal establishment without a nutrition facts information, repackaged and labeled at a retail location without nutrition facts information, products sold at retail with restrictive labeling indications (e.g., "for school food-service use only"), and retail locations applying labeling to products in unlabeled protective coverings.
