Russia’s food safety watchdog has suspended operations at four McDonald’s restaurants in Moscow over alleged sanitary law breaches.
The watchdog claimed the fast-food chain was responsible for “numerous violations of sanitary legislation requirements”, adding it had sealed off the restaurants’ premises.
McDonald’s said in a statement that it is reviewing the Rospotrebnadzor watchdog’s claims.
The company added that its “top priority is to provide safe and quality products” for its customers.
Among the restaurants closed was the first-ever McDonald’s in Russia, which opened during the last days of the Soviet Union.
Another of the restaurants is located on Moscow’s Manezh Square, under the walls of the Kremlin.
Last month Rospotrebnadzor expressed doubts about the “quality and safety of food products in the entire McDonald’s chain”, which has 430 restaurants in Russia..see more
