Overview

Circle A Food Mart in Dade City has 4 inspections on record between June 2023 and September 2025, with a combined 20 violations and no stop-sale orders. The facility faced a significant compliance issue in June 2025 when FDACS found it operating without a valid food permit, citing deficiencies in employee health reporting documentation and requiring permit fee payment. A prior inspection in January 2025 documented a high-priority violation for poisonous or toxic materials (soap and chemicals) stored above single-use food items, which was corrected on site by relocating the items to upper shelves. The facility has displayed recurring intermediate-priority violations across three inspections: missing or inaccessible food temperature measuring devices (cited in January 2025 and June 2023, though no actual temperature violations were observed), and handwashing sink deficiencies including missing hand drying devices (January 2025 and June 2023, both corrected on site with paper towel provision). A June 2023 inspection also found raw shell eggs stored directly above milk and other ready-to-eat drinks in the walk-in cooler, a cross-contamination risk that was corrected immediately. Employee health procedure documentation gaps appeared in both 2023 and 2025 inspections. The most recent focused inspection on September 19, 2025 verified the facility's hemp product addition and compliance with related requirements, with no violations cited.
