The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) operates a mandatory safety program for all seafood products

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the National Marine Fisheries Service, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), state authorities and experts are working in cooperation to monitor the safety of seafood along the Gulf Coast.

The food safety laboratories of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services have long been ranked among the best of any state in the nation. In addition, the FDAC has recently stepped up its sampling and lab testing of Florida Gulf seafood products. This extra scrutiny means that residents and visitors can be assured that Florida's world-famous seafood is safe and wholesome. More information on the Florida Gulf Safe seafood program.
