 The DOJ filed a complaint in U.S. district court in Kansas on March
21 at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, alleging
that the company's refried beans and sauces have been prepared,
packed under insanitary conditions.
The insanitary conditions include the presence of Listeria
monocytogenes in NAE's facility and insanitary employee practices.
The FDA inspected NAE's facility in August and observed rain water
leaking through the roof in the packaging room, directly above where
the refried beans were packed, a complaint filed by the regulator on
the matter said.
The court and Native American Enterprises agreed to a consent decree
of permanent injunction against the company, its vice president and
part-owner, William McGreevy, and production manager Robert Conner.
