Amman, May 29 (Petra) – Inspection teams from the Jordan Food and
Drug Administration (JFDA) conducted 1,000 inspection tours across
the Kingdom during the Eid al-Adha holiday as part of a campaign to
ensure the safety of food products.

In a press release, the JFDA said the inspection campaign revealed

campaigns to safeguard public health and consumer safety.
