Did you know that CDFA’s Shipping Point Inspection (SPI) Program inspected 3.81 billion pounds of fresh product in fiscal year 2021-22?
SPI inspects fresh fruits and vegetables in a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and in voluntary inspections to make sure that produce meets industry-developed standards like US grade standards or other written government or private specifications for fresh products. Bottom line — these inspections help ensure that consumers receive high-quality products!
