Fish shop on Abdijstraat in Antwerp's Kiel must close for 3 months: "Dirty work surfaces, pests, and unpleasant odors"
The mayor of Antwerp, Els van Doesburg, has ordered the closure of a fish shop on Abdijstraat for three months due to serious violations of public safety, health, and labor laws. Inspections revealed unsanitary conditions, illegal employment, and food unfit for consumption. The shop had previously failed to improve despite legal actions. The closure aims to protect public health and safety, requiring the owner to rectify all deficiencies before reopening.
