Zhongxin Finance, March 25. On the 25th, the Shanghai Municipal Market Supervision and Administration Bureau issued a situation report saying that the high price of potatoes sold by the Lianhua Supermarket Yanping Road store was due to the wrong price.
The Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Supervision stated that on March 24, in response to citizens’ reports that Lianhua Supermarket’s Yanping Road store was selling potatoes at high prices, the Municipal Market Supervision Bureau attached great importance to it and immediately organized law enforcement officers to investigate and verify the relevant situation.
After investigation, the staff of the store printed the potato part, which should be priced at 7.8 yuan/kg, as 107.8 yuan/kg on March 24 due to operational errors.
A total of 104 potatoes were sold that day, two of which were sold at 107.8 yuan/kg at 10:36 and 12:37 respectively.
After the tally staff found the wrong price during the inspection process, before the law enforcement officers went to the scene to check, they had voluntarily adjusted the price to 7.8 yuan/kg, and posted a notice in the business premises to recall the wrongly priced goods.
