Food safety

First, news about food safety.

There are big differences in food safety in grocery stores.

Yle requested reports on last year’s food inspections.

The most problems have been in the K-Group stores.

In K-Group stores, there were problems with cold storage or hygiene in 7 percent of inspections.

For example, in some stores, fish or cold cuts were kept too warm.

In S Group stores, problems were found in only 2% of inspections.

There are big differences in food safety in grocery stores.

There were almost no problems at all in Lidl stores.

One reason is that Lidl does not have fresh fish or meat counters.

Now news from Helsinki’s Vuosaari harbor.

Problems at the port of Vuosaari are making Finnish transport difficult.

That’s what the transport companies say.

30 transport companies have filed a joint complaint against the operations of port company Steveco, which transfers containers from ships to trucks.

Transport companies say that cars are waiting in line at the port for too long. The queue can last up to five hours.

Transportation Manager Jussi Mäkelä says that there are too few employees and machines at the port.

Port company Steveco hopes that cars will book an arrival time in advance.

Steveco says it will hire more workers as port traffic increases.

Finally, news about beekeeping on the roof.

Rooftop beekeeping is becoming more common.

This is the Laajavuori hotel in Jyväskylä.

The hotel has beehives on the roof in the summer, from which the hotel obtains honey.

The location is good for bees because there is a forest and private gardens near the hotel.

The hotel serves honey with breakfast and sells it to customers.

Rooftop beekeeping is popular in many countries.

Now it is also increasing in Finland, for example in restaurants and hotels.

Still a weather forecast.

The weather will be changeable on Thursday.

It may rain a little in the east.

Elsewhere it will be breezy, but cloudy.

The temperature is between 12 and 22 degrees.
