Perfect Score from the VT Dept of Ag—3rd Year in a Row!
The Vermont Agency of Agriculture: Food and Markets, Food Safety and Consumer Protection Division conducts spot checks for scanner accuracy at grocery stores statewide. At each store, an agency representative scans products from a variety of departments to make sure that they will ring up at the price advertised by shelf tags and signs. The goal is to find a total of 100 randomly selected items scanning correctly, 50 at regular price and 50 at sale price. If the tester finds a mistake, in each category (regular vs. sale), the test must be started anew, until 50 items in a row scan correctly. The maximum allowable number of mistakes is two.
We are very pleased to announce that, for the third year in a row, City Market has achieved a perfect score on this State test for scanner accuracy. On the morning of Tuesday, December 16, agency representative Michael LaRose conducted his annual spot check. He found no mistakes. We attribute this success to open and frequent communication among all our co-workers and departments.
