Two Donegal food businesses were given closure orders in April by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.
Payless Grocery & Meat, 46 Port Road, and ChicKing, Unit 3, O’Boyce’s Corner, Port Road, are both based in Letterkenny, and were closed under the FSAI Act 1998, and the European Union (Official Controls in Relation to Food Legislation) Regulations 2020, respectively.
There was a total of 21 closures nationwide, which is the highest in a single month since November 2019.
The FSAI stated that “consumers have a right to safe food and food safety must always be a top priority for food businesses. There are no excuses.”
