In the municipalities of Bananeiras and Solânea, Paraíba, a joint inspection operation involving the Consumer Prosecution Office (MP-Procon), the State Health Surveillance Agency (Agevisa-PB), the Military Fire Department, and the Military Police led to the closure of a restaurant and the re-closure of two other establishments.

Inspectors identified various sanitary and consumer protection violations, such as the sale of expired products, improperly labeled spirits, inadequate hygiene, and unverified water potability. In a subsequent phase, five more establishments, including pharmacies and supermarkets, were cited for issues including irregular product fractionation, divergent expiration dates, and poor cleanliness.
