Shafie Shamsuddin says its stores stock the 15 per cent broken rice variety

PETALING JAYA: A hypermarket denied selling chicken without adhering to specifications.

It also denied that it did not stock the 15 per cent broken rice variety.

Carrefour managing director for Malaysia and Singapore Shafie Shamsuddin claimed its stores were amply stocked with the 15 per cent broken rice variety.

Shafie said this to refute a survey conducted by the Consumer Research and Resource Centre, which claimed that the rice variety was not available at hypermarkets.

The survey from September to last month showed that some outlets stocked chicken with feet but without its head, or with a head minus its feet, so that the pricing need not reflect the prices on the controlled items list.

Shafie said this at the hypermarket's 15th anniversary celebration here yesterday.
