Case Study

Improving profit and productivity in Palestine

The Ministry of National Economy and Ministry of Health in cooperation with the Palestine Standards Institute, revised the maximum allowable expiry date for Yogurt TR 8-2005. The Regulators extended the expiry date from 21 days to 30 days for approval through an accredited Laboratory that the product can stand. This decision reduces the amount of returned products, increases production, and gives the national product a competitive advantage. (Palestine)
