Midlands Food Business Closes Under Food Safety Authority Order

It joins businesses in Dublin, Wexford, Donegal, Monaghan which were served with a similar order.

Seven closure orders have been served on food businesses for issues, including rat droppings, listeria, and dead insects.

The Food Safety Authority has ordered a business in Offaly to shut its doors until the problems are resolved. 

It joins businesses in Dublin, Wexford, Donegal, Monaghan which were served with a similar order.

The authority says multiple occurrences in enforcement orders issued in May show a complete lack of adequate procedures in place to control pests. 

Other issues include beef, chicken and pork dishes kept at temperatures likely to result in a health risk, and an electric fly killer full of dead insects located directly above a production line.
