Today, April 30, 2026, the Food Authority of Liberia (FAL), under the leadership of Director General Precellia Cherue, has initiated intensified inspections of food businesses, including bakeries, to enforce national food safety laws.

It can be recalled the FAL shut down the Golden Loaf Artisanal Bakery in Airfield, Sinkor, due to serious unsanitary conditions, poor hygiene, and violation of health regulations, instructing them to remain closed until sanitation issues are corrected and a follow-up inspection is passed.

Director General Cherue and her technical team launched surveillance to inspect food production sites, including a visit on April 27, 2026, to ensure compliance with product registration and listing.

The FAL has warned that they will rigorously enforce the Food Law of Liberia to ensure safe food supplies, under the slogan "Healthy Food, Prosperous Nation".

This initiative is part of a broader push to modernize food safety in Liberia, which included the launch of a new Liberian Food Safety Coordination Committee (LFSCC) in April 2026.

Enforcement action expected soon!
