Shanghai Husi Food's food safety violations company-led: regulator


    SHANGHAI (Reuters) - A Chinese food watchdog said food safety violations at Shanghai Husi Food Co Ltd, a supplier to global brands including McDonald's Corp and Yum Brands Inc, were company-led and not the acts of individuals, the official Xinhua news agency reported late on Tuesday.

    McDonald's and KFC's parent Yum, along with a number of other global brands, have been pulled into the food safety scandal after it emerged that Shanghai Husi Food, a unit of U.S.-based OSI Group LLC, had supplied expired meat to clients.
