The main objective of the study is to evaluate the warehousing operation of National Food Authority (NFA)-Batangas. The research is basically a descriptive type of research that dealt with the warehousing operations of NFA. Results showed that warehousing operation evaluation in terms of inspection and quality control operation revealed that the warehouse workers have an excellent level of operation in maintaining the quality of products while the common problem they have encountered in the operation includes manual storing of the products, defective pallets, and spoilage of the product being stored. The pallets were not in good condition because the warehouse can’t sustain right temperature to prevent it from deterioration caused by molds. Molds exist because the warehouse cannot maintain the proper humidity required for such warehouse. Dull-looking rice batches indicate excessive drying or self-heating. Birds waste invites pests that causes poor quality or rejected rice products.
