CFIA suspends the Safe Food for Canadians licence of Unistraw Holdings Pte, Ltd

February 22, 2021, Ottawa

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has suspended the Safe Food for Canadians licence #4RWD998W of Unistraw Holdings Pte, Ltd., located in Singapore, effective February 3, 2021.

Safe Food for Canadians licences can be suspended:

The CFIA suspended the licence because the licence holder failed to comply with section 12 of the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR) regarding the fixed place of business of a non-resident importer.

During a licence suspension, licence holders may not conduct any activity that is identified in their licence. There is no food recall associated with this suspension.

The licence suspension will be lifted if the CFIA determines that corrective measures have been taken by the licence holder. If corrective actions are not taken within 90 days after suspension, the CFIA may cancel the licence. The CFIA may also cancel the licence on other grounds set out in section 39 of the SFCR. Cancellation can occur after the licence holder has been notified of the grounds for cancellation and provided with an opportunity to be heard.

Licence holders are responsible for ensuring they comply with Canada's food laws. The CFIA is committed to enforcing those laws.

The CFIA publishes SFC licence suspensions and cancellations on its website.
