Product safety in Sevastopol: more than 8 thousand retail outlets operate in the Mercury system

To control the quality of animal products, Sevastopol uses the federal Mercury system, which was developed by Rosselkhoznadzor. Now in Sevastopol there are already more than 8 thousand objects registered in it — from farms and enterprises to shops and markets.

«Mercury» is an electronic certification system that tracks the path of products from production to the shelf. Thanks to it, you can see where and by whom the goods were produced, how they were transported and stored. The system makes veterinary documents transparent and prevents the sale of counterfeit or dangerous products. Manufacturers save time on paperwork, and buyers can be sure: meat, milk, fish, eggs and other products from markets and fairs in Sevastopol are checked at every stage, stored and transported according to the rules, which means they are safe— shared the head of the department for organizing laboratory diagnostic activities and veterinary and sanitary examination Olesya Khmelevskaya.

Registration in the Mercury system is mandatory for livestock and poultry farms, owners of private farms with the preservation of farm animals, meat, fish and milk processing enterprises, catering organizations, retail outlets, as well as manufacturers of animal feed and pet stores.

To obtain information about the trading platform, you must contact the Sevastopol Veterinary Center on Mogilevskaya Street, 16. Phone: +7 (978) 300-98-57.
