The Special Judicial Police will focus inspections on 480 locations including livestock product processing and sales establishments, checking for ▲false labeling of origin ▲storage of products past their expiration date ▲compliance with livestock product storage and distribution standards ▲and false or exaggerated labeling of meat type, cut, grade, and tracking number.


In particular, this crackdown will utilize pork origin identification kits to detect cases where foreign pork is disguised and sold as domestic pork, enhancing the accuracy and speed of the inspections.
