Management Of Marwako Lament Over ¢750k Fine By FDA After Poisoning Over 50 People

The Management of Marwako Fast Food says it has taken steps to pay a ¢750,000 fine handed it by the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA).

According to its Public Relations Officer of Marwako, Mohammed Amin Lamptey, his outfit had already paid ¢500,000 to the FDA and would pay the remaining fine later today.

“We agree with the FDA but if you look at it from the perspective of crisis management and crisis communication, the things they put out there can easily damage our brand,” he said.

Mr Lamptey told GraphicOnline in an interview that although his outfit had accepted the sanctions, it disagreed with a part of the statement of the FDA which stated that the management of the restaurant destroyed some food items during the investigation.

“…Whatever they have said in their statement, we can’t contest them but I have indicated that Marwako has every right to call for an independent investigation with regards to the investigation”.

He said the company decided against this because of the trauma its customers, management and staff have already been through.
