Lusaka, May 20, 2024
The Zambia Compulsory Standards Agency (ZCSA) has seized and withdrawn from the market expired beverages valued at more than K2, 700 in Nakonde District.
ZCSA Public Relations Officer Onishias Maamba says the Agency seized and withdrew from the market more than 20 crates of beverages from Punga Waba Kankwe and Ishmu Poultry Farms valued at K2,790.
Mr Maamba said this enforcement action was conducted over the weekend during a spot check on different products supplied on the market.
“The seized products, which allegedly came from Lusaka a month ago, violated the Compulsory Standards Act No. 3 of 2017 and will be disposed of soon. ZCSA is warning of punitive measures against entities which are manufacturing, importing and supplying beverages on the market without complying with the laws of Zambia,” he said.
“This is because such products may pose a risk to public safety and health. ZCSA will continue conducting enforcement and public education activities across Zambia in a bid to ensure that only safe products are supplied to consumers.
