This informative session was a key part of Environment Week 2025, an initiative by the Ministry themed "Our Environment is a Treasure."

The Chief Executive Officer of the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), H.E. Dr. Hisham S. Aljadhey, conducted an inspection visit to several facilities in Jeddah, including the Authority's branch office in the Western Region. This visit aimed to monitor operational progress and ensure the effectiveness of services to safeguard product safety. It is part of a series of routine tours across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to enhance oversight of products under the SFDA's jurisdiction.

The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) stressed the importance of avoiding exposure to pesticides due to the significant danger they pose if not handled correctly.

This warning is part of the "Summer and Tourism" awareness campaign launched by the SFDA in anticipation of summer, a time when pesticide use increases due to increased insect and rodent activity.
