USDA Inspectors in NYS

Written By Erica Frenay

A map of NYS, divided into regions, with USDA inspectors listed for each region.

The US Dept of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) provides oversight for all Custom Exempt and fully-USDA inspected plants. Whether you are building a new plant or taking over an existing business, your USDA inspector can answer questions about regulatory compliance.

The contacts for each region of NYS were up-to-date as of March 2022.
