CEO of the FDA, Dr. Delese Darko

The Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) has cautioned the public against the consumption of some three water products manufactured by Samdoe Enterprise located at Community 18 on the Spintex Road in Accra.

This follows a shutdown of the company due to the non-adherence to safety and quality conditions in the production of the products.

The products are Perfect Ice Drinking Water, Aqua Link Drinking Water and Leaders Drinking Water.

“The Authority’s Inspection Team uncovered major safety and quality issues, including operation in an unsuitable wooden structure, presence of open drains with algae and fungi growth, dirty filters, and no pest control regime,” it said in a press release issued by the Chief Executive Officer on Wednesday, July 12.

“The public is therefore cautioned not to consume the unregistered brands listed above.

“Consumers who have already purchased these products are urged to immediately halt their use and properly dispose of them immediately. Retailers and distributors are also requested to withdraw all these brands from the market.”
