3354: SSNBS INTERVIEW | From Border to Shelf: The Challenge of Keeping Goods Safe
About this episode
The episode discusses the challenges of ensuring product safety in South Sudan and features an interview with quality control experts.
How safe are the products reaching South Sudanese consumers? The South Sudan National Bureau of Standards says it tests imported and locally produced goods, conducts market surveillance and removes products that fail to meet required standards. But limited laboratory infrastructure, long distances between entry points and testing facilities, and weak coordination among government agencies continue to create gaps. In this Miraya Breakfast Show interview, Quality Manager Garang Mayor Nyariel and Deputy Head of the Metrology Laboratory Sunday Isaac Dongrin discuss the challenges and plans to strengthen quality control.
