Romanian food businesses selling products of animal origin have been hit with over one million lei (approximately €200,000) in fines following inspections by the National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC). The ANPC inspectors uncovered several irregularities during the checks. Details regarding the specific nature of these violations have not yet been released, but the substantial amount of the fines suggests significant non-compliance. The penalties aim to ensure consumer safety and adherence to regulations within the food industry. This action underscores the ANPC’s commitment to monitoring and enforcing standards for animal product retailers. Further investigations and details regarding the specific infractions are expected to be released by the ANPC in the coming days. The fines represent a considerable blow to the affected businesses.
