SHANGHAI (Reuters) - An on-going
internal investigation conducted by OSI Group LLC into its unit, the
scandal-hit Chinese food supplier Shanghai Husi Food Co Ltd, has
revealed that standards were below par.

David McDonald, president and chief operation officer at OSI
Industries, told a news conference in Shanghai on Monday that the
company would make "sweeping changes" to its China operations,
including senior personnel changes.
The firm will also spend 10 million yuan ($1.62 million) over three
years to launch a food safety education program in Shanghai.
OSI said over the weekend it would "withdraw from the marketplace"
all products made by Shanghai Husi, and that it was conducting an
internal investigation into current and former senior management.
