A Shanghai court has settled the case regarding Shanghai Carrefour Quyang Store's selling of expired pork.
Carrefour has been ordered to stop selling the pork and return all the RMB10,661.77 income it earned from the sale of the bad meat. The company must also pay a RMB53,308.85 fine.
The supplier of the meat, Shanghai Shuanghui Dachang Taisen Company has been asked to stop supplying the meat and it has been fined RMB658,51.35. It is also required to pay a RMB395,44.65 penalty for dealing in businesses beyond its approved licensed scope.
Shanghai Food and Medicine Supervision Bureau says it will continue to recall the bad meat.
On April 1, Shanghai Food and Medicine Supervision Bureau identified 153 boxes of small ribs marking with "fresh pork" stickers at Shanghai Carrefour Quyang Store. That meat was actually expired for about four months.
