last week I bought two pieces of Pizza and found them spoiled and when called the manager she apologized and assured me that it would not happen again.

I told the manager that what if this would be reported to MBS and she had no answer except the apology. so its for sure that hygiene is being compromised. we have to be aware about right to reject and report if we are sold anything of compromised standard.

MBS, you haven’t a clue what you are doing. Untrained people, uncalibrated instruments, dated reagents, etc. I speak from experience, I dealt with you idiots some years ago.
Only motivated by politics (to please your Masters) and bribe taking.
Superior Meats has set high standards, and why your jealousy for their success?

MBS you need to be professional do the same with all produce markets in the cities of Malawi Limbe, Blantyre, Lilongwe, Mzuzu and Zomba as a start. Then we will believe you are professionals.
Mbs tikuyang’ana kwa ndalama Fanta. Wake womwewo ndi nthambi zonse za boma, pa kaperekedwe ka ziphuphu ku Malawi ndi zopusa basi, zokhumudwitsa ndi anamufoolera Yobu. Posachedwapa takhala za kuzemba misonkho akhala zikuchitika kumeneko ndi sindikuwatsutsa anthu izo. Kodi misonkho yanu ati? Kupanga andale mafuta ndi olemera. zipatala alibe mankhwala, dongosolo maphunziro osati kugwira ntchito, palibe chinthu choterocho monga chikole. chuma kulephera, koma pulezidenti athu chete amatenga cronies ake America maholide misonkho yanu. n’zoonekeratu kuti malawi walephera pa demokalase. mulungu akudalitseni anthu a malawi, iwo sakuyenera ipyole zinyalala zomwe akukumana nazo.
What about the stink in Shoprite and Peoples and the rats in Chipiku? Superior halal is the cleanest supermarket in Malawi. How can this be shut down and the others not?
Komanso mukayendere kumisika yonse MMalawi muno especialy in our cities . Anthu tikugulitsidwa zinthu zosasamalidwa in terms of hygiene. Dirty stalls, Zina pansi penipeni on dirty rags on isles where people are supposed to walk. Blantyre market its not like the same market which was clean and orderly during Kamuzu’s time. I wonder if city public health officers are still there and doing their job. Lets be proud of our country by doing orderly things and following good hygiene
WELL DONE MBS. YOU ARE TRYING
