Second Food Lover’s Market in Soweto shut down

The city says it will keep the two outlets closed until they have been fully vetted for health risks.


Environmental health inspectors from the city of Johannesburg’s environmental health department shut down a second Food Lovers Market outlet yesterday after an inspection revealed the need for deep cleaning and fumigation.
The department said it would keep the two Food Lovers Market outlets in Soweto – one in Diepkloof and another in Jabulani – closed until they have been fully vetted for health risks.
The closure of these outlets was precipitated by a video, which went viral on social media, showing a rodent inside a fridge in the Diepkloof store where food was being kept.
In a statement on Tuesday, the city said its environmental health inspectors have been monitoring the Food Lovers Market in Diepkloof since it opened in 2013, focusing mainly on rodent infestation.

Quickly ran into FLM yesterday on the way home (against my better judgement).
When I got to the till the cashier pointed out that there was a bug in my packet of mushrooms and offered to go exchange it. Seemed like a normal occurrence :unsure:

City must also help with rat problem at Diepkloof store: Food Lover's Market


Food Lover's Market, which recently made headlines after a rat was filmed tearing into a salad at its Diepkloof store, has suggested that the City of Johannesburg should also take responsibility for the incident.

"We and our franchisees have for years been fighting an ongoing battle to combat the presence of rodents around our stores and the premises they occupy. We have also employed outside pest control agencies that have taken all measures available to them, but the rodent problem has remained an ongoing issue," spokesperson Nigel Meintjes said in a statement.

"However, we feel it is important to note that the areas surrounding both stores in question – Diepkloof in particular – is in a disgusting state. This area has acted as an informal dumping site for years without any remedial action being taken by the City," he added.

"It would assist our cause greatly if the municipality were to clean up the area as the lack of rubbish removal most certainly acts as a fertile breeding ground for rodents and the like. Residents of these areas deserve no less."
