DFWZ Ltd, operating under the trading name ‘Sals Halal’ which is a retailer at Bridge Street in Portadown, was fined £6,750 for six offences plus additional court fees, when the case came before Craigavon Magistrates Court on Tuesday 6 May.

The offences included; failure to maintain the food premises in a clean condition; failure to protect against contamination and pest control; placing unsafe food on the market; failure to provide adequate storage and disposal for food waste and refuse, and failure to maintain refuse areas free from animals and pests; failure to implement and maintain food safety procedures; failure to label food products to ensure traceability.

The case was brought by ABC Council after their Environmental Health officers carried out inspections at the business in May 2024. During inspections, officers found a dead mouse, cleaning deficiencies, expired food products and number of other issues. Formal notices were served by the council but due to the serious nature of the offences, legal proceedings were taken against the company.
