The Food and Drug Supervisory Agency or BPOM is an official Indonesian government agency that has the authority to oversee medicinal products and food products that are marketed and circulated in Indonesia.

One of BPOM's tasks is to issue distribution permits to every processed food product circulating in the country. This is stated in the Regulation of the Head of the POM No. 27 of 2017 concerning Food Registration.

The regulation states that every processed food, whether imported for trade or production in Indonesia, must have a distribution permit issued by BPOM. A distribution permit is not only required for large companies but also the medium micro, small enterprise sector (MSMEs).
