The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued a notice about the updated dollar limits for retail stores selling meat and poultry products to hotels, restaurants, and similar institutions without requiring federal inspection. For 2025, the limits have been raised to $103,600 for meat and meat products and $74,800 for poultry products. These adjustments are based on changes in consumer prices reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The limits ensure that such retail operations remain exempt from federal inspection while selling to non-household consumers.
Simple Explanation
The Food Safety and Inspection Service wants people to know that in 2025, stores can sell a lot of meat and chicken to places like hotels and restaurants without extra rules, and they’ve set new money limits for those sales. They made these new limits because the prices of things people buy have changed.
