Well Done Safeway/Woolworths

I am impressed with the quick action that Safeway has undertaken in regards to food contamination. Not often I would say well done but in this case it was a very quick response and the reaction in recalling all products and removing the rest from sale is impressive putting peoples health and safety above profits.

Well done.


Safeway store closes after contamination

POLICE are investigating a contamination scare at a Safeway supermarket in suburban Bayswater in Melbourne after staff discovered some fresh produce contained foreign objects.

The store has issued a product recall where customers who bought fresh fruit or vegetables from the store today can return their goods for a full refund.

Safeway spokesman Clare Buchanan would not specify what the foreign objects were or the products affected.

“We're not in a position to discuss what the product is,” she said.

Woolworths Limited said in a statement tonight that the incident was believed to be isolated, affecting the Bayswater store only.
