Usa Food Mart in Oakland Park

Last inspected:

1040 W Prospect Rd, Oakland Park, FL 33309
Overview

USA Food Mart in Oakland Park has been subject to ongoing enforcement action since March 2024 related to time and temperature control failures. A stop-sale order issued March 6, 2024 required the voluntary destruction of Cream o Land dairy products distributed by Island Dairy after they were found stored at improper cold-holding temperatures. A subsequent stop-use order issued December 17, 2024 addressed unsanitary equipment conditions; the equipment was repaired and released following inspector verification. Between May and December 2024, the facility received four focused inspections documenting ongoing noncompliance with requirements to cease storing time and temperature control foods in the walk-in cooler. Inspector notes from these visits indicate repeated verbal outreach to bring the facility into compliance, with warnings that failure to obtain written release of the equipment and correct storage practices may result in administrative action. The facility had 6 total inspections on record with no violations cited outside the initial March 2024 operating-without-permit inspection. The most recent inspection on December 17, 2024 resulted in equipment release following compliance.
