Bulgaria’s Food Safety Agency is launching inspections of companies supplying food to schools across the country, beginning Monday. The initiative will focus specifically on firms participating in the “School Milk” and “School Fruit” schemes, government-subsidized programs providing dairy and produce to students. Inspections will concentrate on verifying the origin and quality of the delivered products. The agency aims to ensure compliance with food safety regulations and standards within the school food supply chain. This action follows concerns regarding product quality and sourcing, though no specific incidents prompted the widespread checks. Authorities have not indicated the expected duration of the inspections or potential consequences for non-compliant suppliers.
