- The kitchen and food storage areas were located in a shared warehouse with nonfood tenants and there were inadequate barriers/separation between these businesses with food areas (especially when nonfood businesses kept bay doors open).

Doing so not only reduces risk of vermin, but also environmental contaminants and nonfood handlers from entering food areas.
