During its latest food hygiene and traceability inspection carried out in September, the National Food Chain Safety Office (Nébih in Hungarian) found 12.6 tonnes of products in a meat processing plant in Csongrád-Csanád county that did not comply with the legal requirements. The authority suspended the operation of the unit with immediate effect.

The inspectors of the National Food Chain Safety Office discovered serious food hygiene and traceability deficiencies in a meat processing plant in Csongrád-Csanád county, Origo reported. The equipment, the changing rooms and the washbasins were covered in rust and dirt, and the hygienic gate was out of order. The authority suspended the operation of the unit with immediate effect due to the poor hygienic conditions.

The inspectors found a large quantity of expired and unmarked (without item identification number) meat products. They also recorded numerous infringements in connection with traceability documentation.

Almost 13 tons of meat products were withdrawn from the market.

The authority immediately withdrew the products from the market and ordered their elimination. Other products that have not reached their labelled expiration date were also recalled since they have come into contact with potentially diseased meat.
