CK Foodstores found selling meat almost two weeks past its use-by date

A Welsh supermarket chain has been caught selling meat almost two weeks beyond its use-by-date. An investigation by S4C's Y Byd ar Bedwar programme found 50 items being sold or displayed past the use-by date at a number of CK Foodstores in Wales.

The supermarket chain, set up by Chris Kiley in 1988, has a history of breaching food safety standards in the last 15 years. In 2020, the company was ordered to pay almost £30,000 for selling out-of-date food and displaying food deemed to be unsafe in two of its Swansea stores.

It's an offence for a business or store to sell any product past its use-by date and companies risk being fined and could face up to two years in prison if they fail to follow this law.
