Ami 101 Food Mart in Eastpoint
Last inspected:
140 Franklin Blvd, Eastpoint, FL 32328Ami 101 Food Mart in Eastpoint has been the subject of six FDACS inspections between April 2023 and December 2025, with a total of 30 violations cited across those inspections. The facility experienced multiple stop-sale and stop-use orders, including a stop-use order issued October 21, 2024 for unsanitary equipment (lack of hot water at handwashing sinks) and a subsequent stop-use order issued November 1, 2024 for the same equipment deficiency, which was corrected and released after plumbing repairs. A stop-sale order issued December 10, 2025 required voluntary destruction of a food product for violations of Florida Food Law. The facility's initial April 2023 inspection revealed the establishment was operating without a valid food permit and cited six violations including missing date marks on ready-to-eat deli items, unidentified chemicals in the ware wash area, and a missing backflow prevention device on an outdoor water spigot. Subsequent inspections documented recurring violations related to handwashing sink temperature control and employee health procedures. The most recent inspection on December 29, 2025 was a re-inspection that verified compliance with prior citations; the facility met sanitation inspection requirements but one repeat violation remained — the establishment still lacked written procedures for employees to follow when responding to vomiting or diarrheal events, though guidance documents were provided.
