WHY IT MATTERS
The seizure demonstrates NAFDAC’s commitment to enforcing product registration rules and protecting consumers from unverified cosmetic products.
What happened
NAFDAC has sealed several shops located at the Lagos Trade Fair Complex after discovering that they were selling cosmetic products that had not been registered with the agency. The enforcement action was announced by the agency and reported by Punch Nigeria.
The sealed shops were found to be dealing in unregistered cosmetics, a violation of the regulations that require all cosmetic products sold in Nigeria to obtain prior registration.
The seizure is part of NAFDAC’s ongoing efforts to enforce compliance with product safety standards at the trade fair venue.
