NOIDA: An outlet of a coffee house chain in Sector 62 has been fined by the Surajpur court for serving substandard products.
S N Singh, chief food safety officer, said some samples of sandwiches and ice cream were taken by the Gautam Budh Nagar food safety department in 2014 and sent to Lucknow for testing, where their quality was found to be below prescribed standards.
"The eatables were of poor quality. We sent them for a test to a government lab in Lucknow, which established that the samples were substandard," he said.
The food safety department registered a case against the outlet in the Surajpur court, which levied a fine of Rs 16 lakh against the coffee house chain.
The officials said that in another case, they had also sent eight samples of milk from another dairy outlet to the government lab and found them to be adulterated. "We had picked up these samples in June 2015 from different outlets in Noida. All the eight samples have failed to match the safety parameters. We will register a case against them soon," an official said.
