Manitoba Health has once again published its Health Protection Report that lists closures, violations and infractions during 2020.
Though most restaurants were closed for dine in due to COVID-19, Manitoba Health continued to ensure proper and safe food handling for pick up and delivery orders.
2020 also saw an influx of home-based food businesses. A reminder that you must have a permit to operate a food handling establishment. A lot of these business were closed due to the lack of a permit.
