CRI听力:US Group Overhauls China Business in Meat Safety Scandal

2014-07-29来源:CRI

US firm OSI has announced it's reviewing all the meat processing plants it owns here in China amid a meat safety scandal involving one of the holding company's operations in Shanghai.

 

President and chief operating officer David McDonald says OSI is suspending all its operations at its Shanghai Husi facility, and is also making senior management changes here in China.

"We have found issues that are absolutely inconsistent with our internal requirements for the highest standards, processes and policies. Why these things took place, by whom they took place, and for what motives they took place? We simply can't understand."

The move comes amid allegations OSI's Shanghai unit mixed expired meat with fresh meat, and then sold it to various fast-food outlets, including McDonalds, Pizza Hut and KFC.

McDonald's restaurants in China are now suffering a shortage of supplies following a decision to back away from OSI.

KFC and Pizza Hut's parent company Yum Brands has already severed its ties with OSI.
