Last inspected:
4033 Dundee Rd, Winter Haven, FL 33884Part of: Sunoco Florida health inspections, violations & closures
Sunoco On The Go in Winter Haven has a record of eight stop-sale orders issued on December 9, 2025, requiring the immediate removal of products from sale. Four orders targeted products with labeling violations under Florida Food Law, and four orders targeted products containing controlled substances prohibited under Florida Statutes Chapter 893. All products were voluntarily destroyed by facility management and witnessed by the inspector. The facility was also cited on the same date for operating with an expired food permit and seven violations including handwashing deficiencies (no soap in restroom, no paper towels at register sink) and unlabeled packaged food products not listing ingredients or content specifications. An earlier inspection on June 24, 2022 documented 14 violations including raw chicken stored above raw pork in a walk-in cooler, no employee health policy in place, unclean utensils for boiled peanuts, and missing thermometer and sanitizer test kit — violations corrected or addressed on site during that inspection. The facility has operated without a valid food permit as of the December 2025 inspection and must renew through the FDACS food permit portal.
