上海法潤麪包店因用過期麪粉而關門

All outlets of one of Shanghai's most popular French bakeries, Farine, were closed last Thursday amid accusations it had been using expired flour and had sanitary issues.

上週四，上海最受歡迎的法式麪包店--法潤麪包店（Farine），其所有門店都被勒令關門，原因是涉嫌使用過期麪粉，並出現了衛生問題。

Farine's factory, which opened at the beginning of March on the outskirts of the city to meet surging demand, also suspended operations.

法潤麪包店爲了滿足激增的市場需求，三月初在上海市郊開設的工廠也被暫停運營。

"We received a tipoff from a person who provided their real name," said Wu Jun, a market administration supervisor in the city's Minhang district. "We found the expired flour and sealed the storage unit that same day."

上海閔行區市場行政監管員吳軍表示：“我們接到了實名舉報。隨即我們就查獲了過期麪粉，並於當天封存了儲藏室。”

In total, 578 bags of expired flour that had been imported from France were found in Farine's factory, according to the administration.

據該行政機構表示，在法潤的工廠裏總共查獲了578袋過期的法國進口麪粉。

Inspectors said they believed it had been used to make baked goods.

檢查人員表示，他們認爲這些過期麪粉已經被用來烤制食品了。

Farine was opened in 2012 by French restaurateur Franck Pecol. Aside from the bakery chain, Pecol also runs an ice cream stand, cafe and a bistro in Shanghai.

法國餐館老闆弗蘭克·佩科爾在2012年創辦了法潤。除了該連鎖麪包店以外，佩科爾還在上海經營着冰激凌攤、咖啡館和小酒館。
