Product recalls from Abbott Laboratories last February exacerbated an infant-formula shortage caused by supply-chain disruptions.
The Food and Drug Administration’s temporary waiver of infant-formula tariffs to address the national baby-formula shortage expired Friday, meaning imported formula could again face tariffs of up to 17.5%.
Product recalls from Abbott Laboratories ABT last February exacerbated an infant-formula shortage caused by supply-chain disruptions. The FDA said “further extensions [are] possible for firms that express interest in and take steps toward remaining on the U.S. market.” Domestic manufacturers said they’ve been operating at full capacity to keep up with the demand from parents.
Under the guidance issued last September, the Department of Agriculture issued tariff exemptions to more than 10 manufacturers from abroad to market their regular formulas to the U.S. market, and to seven manufacturers for specialty formulas for infants with special medical needs, according to the FDA.
Kendamil entered the formal testing procedure with the FDA five years ago, much earlier than the many other international manufacturers that entered this year, McMahon said. He is hopeful that Kendamil could land a permanent spot in the U.S. market this year.
