The CEO and co-founder of a Georgia plant that produces a special peanut butter paste for severely malnourished children has announced that all of the company's contracts with the US Agency for International Development (USAID) that were previously canceled have now been reinstated as of Sunday evening. Mark Moore, CEO of MANA Nutrition based in Fitzgerald, Georgia, expressed his excitement over the reinstatement of the contracts, sharing screenshots of the rescinded termination notifications.
This positive development follows a statement made by Elon Musk earlier on Sunday, where he pledged to investigate and rectify the situation. Musk's commitment to addressing the issue was in response to reports that the plant's contracts with USAID had been terminated.
Upon learning about the cancellation of the contracts, Moore took immediate action by ceasing the use of USAID labeling on the peanut butter pouches. He is now working swiftly to revert back to using the USAID packaging.
Describing the situation as a 'yo-yo,' Moore expressed his urgency in instructing the factory to resume using USAID packaging starting from midnight.
