The labeling of a responsible party is required mostly so that consumers have a point of contact if they find something wrong with the product.

The name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor are required. The street address may be omitted by a firm listed in a current city or telephone directory. A firm whose address is outside the United States may omit the ZIP code.⁵⁶

If the food is not manufactured by the person or company whose name appears on the label, the name must be qualified by “Manufactured for,” “Distributed by,” or a similar expression.

A website address is not required information. In addition, a web address cannot replace or substitute for any of the required information.
