Overview

  • Anvisa published the decision on Tuesday, prohibiting the sale, import, distribution and advertising of Los Nobles nationwide.
  • The product is marketed online as Argentine but lacks approval from Argentina’s ANMAT, leading the agency to classify it as clandestine.
  • Authorities said they do not know the company responsible for the brand or the distributor’s CNPJ tax ID.
  • Federal regulators have issued more than 70 prohibitions on olive oils since early 2024, with Anvisa and the Agriculture Ministry maintaining updated lists.
  • Consumers are advised to check the Agriculture Ministry’s CGC for company registration and use Anvisa’s tool to verify irregular or falsified products; G1 reported no response from the brand.
