Food Retail Industry

Supermarkets focus mainly on food and contain fresh food areas such as fruit and vegetable produce, meat, deli, bakery, ready-made drink, but may also household cleaning facilities, drug stores, and flower shops. Supercenters have food areas of different size and many other non-food areas, but the focus is on non-food areas (i.e, home decor, clothing, and other areas) and many other areas. Grocery store is a small area in the superstore

It is essential for the food retail facilities to be a pest-free environment, where customers can visit the facility on a daily every day. The discovery of pests by those customers may seriously jeopardize their visits.

Pests in these types of facilities can carry many harmful bacteria that can threaten the health of customers and staff. ETS has customized IPM programs with complete and modern pest control practices, and offers fast and accurate solutions to stop pest problems before they become widespread. Food retail facilities are at risk for many pests because (1) resources for pest survival are present in these facilities (food, water, and heat), (2) product receiving areas and back room areas (freezers, coolers, meat cutting room, and produce preparation room) are the main entry point for pests. The food traffic in and out of these facilities allows the pests to enter easily, and (3) hiding places and crevices (such as display cases, shelves, false ceilings, and floors).
