During March, the FDA conducted inspections at three separate food and cosmetics businesses in Kentucky, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

These inspections represented the second highest count for a single company type by the FDA in Kentucky, accounting for 37.5% of all inspections conducted that month.

The FDA routinely inspects facilities across the nation to determine if the workplace and their products are compliant with FDA-regulated laws and regulations implemented to improve overall public health. Inspection results are then disclosed publicly.

According to its website, the FDA is a government agency that is primarily responsible for monitoring the production and distribution of human and animal drugs, biological products, medical supplies and tobacco products for safety and quality.
