Akme Poultry, Butter & Egg Distributors Inc. has had its license to produce poultry products pulled by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. The action against the company, located in Saint-Eustache, Quebec, was effective May 6.
The Canadian agency determined that adequate controls for food safety are not being reliably and consistently implemented in the facility. It further ruled that the company has failed to correct deficiencies previously identified through inspections, including corrective action requests related to general hygiene requirements.
Akme will not be able to resume operations until it has fully implemented the necessary corrective actions and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is fully confident in the plant's capacity to effectively manage food safety risks. The company, in business since 1967, was licensed for boning, cutting and "other processing" of poultry and red meat, and for exports to the U.S., South Africa and Chile.
