FDA UNFORTUNATELY IS NOT LEAVING UP TO THEIR MANDATES. IN FACT IF IT'S NOT FOR POLITICS, THIS SACHET WATER SHOULD BE BANNED IN GHANA. KENYA BAN SACHET WATER AND THEY DIDN'T DIE.

STANDARD BOARD AUTHORITY AND FDA ARE COMPLICIT IN ALLOWING THIS WATER COMPANIES TO PRODUCE CONTAMINATED WATER TO GHANAIANS.

SECONDLY WHAT MOST OF THIS WATER COMPANIES ARE INTO FRANCHISING MEANING IF YOU WANT TO START WATER BUSINESS, THAT'S TO PRODUCE WATER AND YOU GO TO THE RECOGNIZE WATER COMPANIES THEY WILL SELL THEIR FRANCHISE TO YOU TO PRODUCE WATER IN THEIR NAME AND COLLECT A PERCENTAGE ON YOUR SALES JUST BY USING YOUR BRAND, THEY DON'T CARE UNDER WHAT CONDITION THE WATER IS PRODUCE.
OUR AUTHORITIES SHOULD TAKE THIS MATTER SERIOUS.

There's no difference in quality between sachet water and GWCL water. The sachet water is sourced from borehole water which does not go through rigorous quality control treatment and checks as compared with the GWCL water. So, in terms of quality, GWCL water is outstanding.

Lartey, what is wrong with what the man is saying? Were you the one who paid him to tarnish the image of the company you complained of? Kindly allow him to tell Ghanaians what is going on wrong with our wayer.

That so call FDA will tell you go and start production after an envelope containing 1000 gh cedis is handed to them. A sick nation.

Have voltic refused to give you advert packages? Are you trying to destroy them because of this?
They should sue you!
I've used voltic sachet water for years without any such observations.
Let us breath!!

Thank you so much. This probe needs to be nation wide because I also have concerns about the 'taste' of the said sachet water.

100% agree with him.

But problem is that the FDA it self is a problem the reason is why do we have soft drinks displayed to direct sun and is sold to the public for consumption when they have to arrest this people.

My wife sells water, sometimes when the water keeps longer in the store it becomes smelly, so we are forced to bring it home to use. FDA please wake up.

A lot of things can explain this phenomenon. First of all, is it legit Voltic sachet water. Because the sachet water industry in Ghana is a notorious free for all. there is no trademark protection at all. There are people making water in their homes and printing all kinds of logo on it. There is no regulation and no control at all. So make sure you are buying your water from a reputable source. Buyer beware!

secondly, storage conditions. Water in plastic containers is not meant to be stored in direct sunlight. But go around Accra and see. Sunlight upon sunlight shinning on these bags everywhere.

thirdly, it may just have been a bad batch. In Ghana, we have almost no food safety recall mechanism. None. So again, buyer beware. Take precautions to protect yourself and your family.

FDA cannot go around all market places making sure people store food and beverages properly. WE are a people lacking discipline. these are all manifestations of it. we think we are doing someone. 3ni y3n n3

The main work of FDA is to be out on the field to check supervise and inspect every product in the Ghanaian market by tracking it to the manufacturing points.

At this areas, we will be shock at what we see and consumer.

We are all dead bodies when it comes to what we consume.

I can strongly tell you that about 85% of this sachets company's don't treat and test the quality of their products they push out for us to consume.

God save us.

It's true. Nowadays the Voltic Cool sachet water looks brownish and it's taste is questionable. The FDA must surely look into it.

Second World War polluted almost (if not) all the rivers in Europe. Their water could not be consumed.
40/50 years after the war, most of their rivers have been cleaned to the extend that people are not only bathing with it but cooking and drinking it.
And we here in this country can't even supply the entire citizens of a centralised healthy water.
People are being asked and encouraged to have their own boreholes and do sachets water ... business for customers.
Stay blessed
