Abu Dhabi shuts down Egyptian Bakery, saying it poses a risk to public health

Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) has issued an administrative closure order against The Egyptian Bakery, holding commercial licence No. (1852988 CN-), for violating Law No.(2) of 2008 concerning food in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and its associated regulations.

The closure was also due to the establishment’s risk to public health.

ADAFSA stated that the decision to administratively close the bakery was due to committing repeated food safety violations and the failure to implement effective corrective measures, necessitating immediate action to ensure food safety and consumer health.

ADAFSA also emphasized that the closure will remain in effect until the violations are rectified, and the establishment may resume operations only after fully complying with all food safety requirements.

The public are urged to report any violations spotted in food establishments or suspicions regarding food products by calling Abu Dhabi Government’s toll-free number 800555, to take necessary action to ensure safe and healthy food for all residents of Abu Dhabi.
