Overview

A Plus Market in DeLand has been subject to multiple stop-sale orders since October 2024 for controlled substances and products attractive to children. On October 4, 2024, FDACS issued stop-sale orders for five products containing hemp inhalables (THC-0 and Delta-9 THC-A) classified as controlled substances under Florida Statutes Chapter 893, and six products containing hemp extract marketed with packaging attractive to children under FS 581.217. Six of these hemp extract products were voluntarily destroyed by establishment management and witnessed by the inspector. Five controlled substance products remain under stop-sale order as of the most recent inspection on January 29, 2026, pending written release from FDACS or court order by law enforcement.

The facility recorded 28 violations during the October 4, 2024 product re-inspection, with critical findings including hot-held food maintained at 121–126°F (minimum required 135°F), cold-held sandwiches at 42°F (maximum 41°F), food-contact utensils on the roller grill not cleaned within four hours, and chemicals stored over active warewashing areas. A pattern of non-compliance was documented regarding person-in-charge duties related to hot holding and sanitization of food contact surfaces. A September 16, 2025 sanitation inspection documented 17 violations, including repeat findings: missing written procedures for vomitus and diarrheal event cleanup, inaccurate sanitizer concentration testing, and handwashing sinks lacking soap in multiple locations. Several violations were corrected on site during that inspection. The facility has had 5 total inspections on record with no other violations recorded outside the October 2024 and September 2025 inspections.
