Specialists of the RA Food Safety Inspection Body, while carrying out control activities in food chain organizations, found food intended for Azerbaijan in the "Surmalu" retail market in Yerevan.
Thus. The batch of 82.5% vegetable oil spread produced by "Tulchinka" LLC of the Russian Federation was intended for import to a neighboring country, which is evidenced by the label of the company producing the label.
Some of the spread was not marked in Armenian at all, and from the Armenian marking on some it became clear that the given batch was imported to Armenia by "ArtImport" LLC.
The sale of the entire batch of spread found has been suspended.
"FSIB inspectors will also carry out control measures in "ArtImport "LLC to find out the conditions under which the food intended for import to another country appeared in the Republic of Armenia. We will provide additional information on the results", the statement said.
