The Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade found a number of violations at a Belmarket store during a spot inspection. The store in question is located on Pershamaiskaya Street in Mahilyow.
A total of 28 types of food products and in-house prepared items with expired sell-by dates, worth more than 780 rubles, were being offered for sale. They included ciabatta, puff pastries, syrniki, grilled chicken drumsticks and lavash with poultry. At the same time, customers were told that the products had just been prepared.
In addition, cabbage rolls, pork knuckle and country-style potatoes prepared the previous day were being stored in the workshop refrigerator after their sell-by dates had expired, with a total value of about 400 rubles. It was not possible to establish their exact preparation date.
Alongside the expired products, the store was also found to be in breach of sanitary regulations, and some goods lacked price tags and the required information for customers.
The store and its food preparation unit have been suspended from March 27, the agency’s press service said.
