Amman: Jordan Investors Association (JIA) commended the national and regulatory role of Jordan Food and Drug Administration (JFDA) and its ongoing efforts to protect the citizens' health and safety and ensure quality and validity of food products. The association also praised the JFDA's support for Jordan's industrial facilities to comply with approved health and technical requirements.
According to Jordan News Agency, JIA Chairman Mujahid Rajabi emphasized that the JFDA's monitoring and inspection campaigns are a "cornerstone" of consumer protection. These efforts maintain the reputation and quality of Jordanian food industries and enhance their competitiveness in local and international markets. Rajabi lauded the professionalism of JFDA staff and their continuous cooperation with the industrial sector.
Rajabi also called for establishing a JFDA office at the JIA's headquarters in King Abdullah II Industrial City in Amman's Sahab district. He highlighted that this initiative would provide direct services to factories operating in Sahab and Muwaqqar estates, streamline procedures, expedite transactions, and save industrialists time, effort, and costs by eliminating the need to visit the JFDA's main building.
The association is currently working on completing e-connectivity with JFDA, aiming to develop services provided to investors, simplify procedures, and expedite information exchange and transaction tracking. Rajabi noted that the association supports the JFDA's efforts and its monitoring and awareness campaigns, believing that effective oversight contributes to protecting compliant establishments, raising the quality of national products, and enhancing consumer confidence in Jordanian industry.
Rajabi expressed the association's appreciation for the JFDA's management and its technical and regulatory staff, stressing its keenness to continue joint cooperation and expand partnership. He stated that this vision would serve industrialists in Sahab and Muwaqqar cities, improve services provided to this group, and support the competitiveness and sustainability of growth in the Jordanian industrial sector.
