According to the details furnished by Spokesperson USC Wajid Ali Khan Swati, the Utility Stores Corporation has launched the campaign to provide low price and standard goods to the public. For the purchase of all edibles items, the Pakistan Standard Quality Control Authority and International Standard Organization certification has been made mandatory, and all the items are being purchased under the new standard operating procedures (SOP).
This step has brought improvements in the quality of all items. MD Utility Stores Corporation, Mathar Niaz Rana, has made it clear that supply of sub-standard items will not be tolerated, and companies will be blacklisted with heavy penalties on doing so.
Before enlisting vendors, suppliers and multinational companies, samples and certification regarding market surveys, pricing, inspection of all production units be verified and checked properly to ensure quality food items provision for the general public and time to time laboratory testing may also be conducted. Further to that laboratory testing of all goods available on shelves of all outlets should be carried out so that common consumers may get better quality. The same policy will also be followed in the future.-PR
