The governor of Egypt's Western Governorate, Alaa Abdel Maati, has ordered an intensification of inspection campaigns on bakeries across the region. The goal is to ensure that bakeries are operating in accordance with the law and producing subsidized bread that meets the required weights and specifications. These efforts aim to protect citizens from irregularities and ensure that they receive the subsidized bread they are entitled to.

Inspectors found that some bakeries were not adhering to the required standards, prompting swift action to address these issues.
Further inspection campaigns were conducted by administrative bodies in Zafta, the city of Mahalla al-Kubra, Basyun, Qutur, and Samanud. These campaigns uncovered a range of irregularities, including underweight bread, production of non-compliant bread, and lack of necessary equipment and documentation. A total of 42 citations were issued during these inspections.
