Kollam district in Kerala has become the first complete food safety district in the country.

The announcement was made by Minister for Health K.K. Shylaja .

Registrations and licences have been distributed to some 30,000-odd entrepreneurs during a drive initiated recently. The establishments include bakeries, auditoriums, hospitals, schools, food donation centres, hostels, and institutions under the beverages corporation. The ice plants in the fisheries sector and cashew factories in the districts were also brought under food safety licensing. The department has convened as many as 29 registration-licensing melas across the district in the past two months to make the effort foolproof. As many as 9,500 new entrepreneurs in the district were also brought under the food safety norms.
