State inspectors found unusual filth in the hand wash room and on food packing equipment — among other problems — at a Miami Gardens food processing facility.
The Oct. 29 Florida Department of Agriculture inspection of Doral Food Distributors, 99 NW 166th St., runs counter to the company’s website claim that “Our warehouses maintain the most rigorous standards, routinely monitoring product quality and safety while ensuring customer satisfaction.”
That’s on the same “Who We Serve” website page on which Doral Foods claims it serves government and military installations, elementary, middle and high schools, colleges and restaurants. Those customers might be surprised to read the violation that “the food establishment is not registered as a Food Facility with the FDA.”
Here are some of the other violations Inspectors Gretchen Rhodes and James Zheng found at the facility for Doral Foods, run by President Ramon Sepulveda.
▪ There was an “overall lack of good housekeeping practices throughout the facility.”
