The inspection revealed that the company was renting out cold storage containers, two of which were found to be storing frozen meat products, including chicken parts (necks, skin, feet, heads), pork (shoulders, belly), duck breasts, and sausages, with no identifiable branding or origin, and all past their expiration dates, totaling over 6.2 tons.
During the investigation, the owners of the frozen meat products admitted to purchasing them informally, without invoices or documentation to verify their legal origin. Furthermore, they acknowledged awareness of the products being past their expiration dates but continued to sell them to food businesses, restaurants, and industrial catering companies in Binh Duong Province and Ho Chi Minh City for profit.

The authorities sealed and confiscated the entire stock, including chicken parts, pork, duck breasts, sausages, and more, totaling 11.2 tons, for further investigation and legal proceedings.
