Foodstuffs

Food control ensures the safety of foodstuffs and handling them and protects consumers from health hazards and financial losses caused by foodstuffs.

The Environment Office supervises the production, storage, transportation, import and export, sales, marketing, handling and serving or other forms of conveyance of foodstuffs. 

The Oulu Environment Office offers instructions on food-related matters, when you

  • are setting a business in the food branch
  • are setting up a place of first arrivals
  • suspect food poisoning
  • are looking for information on matters related to package labelling
  • want to report an issue with the quality of a food product or other similar matter
