During the inspection, according to ANSA’s findings, ‘signs of spoilage’ were observed in the bananas, whilst the tea consignment was found to exceed the maximum permissible levels of the pesticides chlorpyrifos and lambda-cyhalothrin (Clorpirifos, Lambda-Cyhalothrin).

The goods did not enter Moldova’s retail network. ANSA once again reminds importers and food industry operators that they are responsible for ensuring compliance with requirements and the safety of products placed on the market. Should any non-compliance be identified, they will incur financial costs associated with the disposal of the goods and, furthermore, may be subject to sanctions.
