Declaration of Responsibility -- Consumer and Non-Consumer
Packages. (3-15-22)
a. Any package
kept, offered, or exposed for sale, or sold, at any place other than on the
premises where packed must specify conspicuously on the label of the package
the name and address of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor. The name must
be the actual corporate name, or, when not incorporated, the name under which
the business is conducted. The address must include street address, city,
state, and zip code; however, the street address may be omitted if this is
shown in a current city directory or telephone directory. The requirement for
inclusion of the zip code must apply only to labels that have been developed or
revised after July 1, 1970. (3-15-22)
b. If a person manufactures, packs, or
distributes a commodity at a place other than his principal place of business,
the label may state the principal place of business in lieu of the actual place
where the commodity was manufactured or packed or is to be distributed, unless
such statement would be misleading. Where the commodity is not manufactured by
the person whose name appears on the label, the name must be qualified by a
phrase that reveals the connection such person has with such commodity, such as
"Manufactured for and packed by," "Distributed by," or any other wording of
similar import that expresses the facts. (3-15-22)
