B&M Retail Ltd has received a £2 million fine due to serious food hygiene violations at three Birmingham locations. Inspections revealed mouse droppings and gnawed food products, leading to immediate store closures following public complaints.
The Birmingham City Council's environmental health service conducted inspections that uncovered multiple hygiene issues, including rodent contamination and inadequate cleaning practices. The company has been ordered to pay the fine and additional costs within 28 days.
