Sales store: Joban Expressway Minori parking area (Out-bound line: towards Mito)
Business: NEXCO-East Retail Co., Ltd.
Sale period: From Friday, October 18, 2013 to Thursday, November 7

2 Cause of occurrence

When introducing the new menu, the business operator placed an order for "Tsukuba local chicken", but the product had already been discontinued, and as a result, "Tsukuba chicken" was delivered. As a result of conducting a survey on all products, it was found that the sales person recognized the discontinuation of "Tsukuba local chicken" and the use of different ingredients. This is caused by the lack of recognition of food ingredients by the business operators and the lack of confirmation of delivered items.

3 Recurrence prevention measures

When introducing a new menu or changing the ingredients to be used, the store manager of the business operator carefully discusses with the ingredients supplier and confirms the origin of the ingredients, the name of the ingredients, etc. in advance. Will prevent the sales person from being unaware of the ingredients and checking the delivered items.
