Several owners of mobile coffee selling shops in Chisinau have been sanctioned for unclean boiling conditions.

These are the first results following controls undertaken by medical authorities, after Publika TV aired a report on the issue.

The specialists have also found that some mobile coffee shops use tap water instead of bottled water.

The inspectors have also established some vendors did not have their medical exams passed and were not instructed concerning sanitary norms.

Seven owners of mobile coffees shops have been fined as one firm was ordered to stop working.
