Two Bakeries Sealed in Ahmedabad During AMC Food Safety Drive

Ahmedabad: The Amdavad Municipal Corporation (AMC) Health-Food Department sealed two bakeries in the city’s South Zone during inspections carried out under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, and the GPMC Act.

Muskaan Bakery, located at Golder Park behind Willsom Hotel in Narol-Lambha, was sealed after officials found that the unit did not have the required food safety licence or registration. The inspection also found non-compliance with Schedule 4 hygiene requirements, absence of a pest control certificate and bakery products being prepared under unhygienic conditions.

Prince Bakery, located behind Chipa Society in Behrampura, was also sealed. Officials found unhygienic conditions and violations of Schedule 4 requirements. Insects were reportedly found in the flour, and the unit did not have a pest control certificate.

The AMC said its Food Department will intensify inspections of food business establishments across the city, focusing on hygiene standards and mandatory licences or registrations. Units found operating without the required approvals or violating food safety regulations will face action under the Food Safety and Standards Act and the GPMC Act.
