Bodrum Municipality continues inspections of supermarkets across the district to protect public health and support safe shopping conditions.

Municipal Police teams have been checking expiry dates, shelf and checkout prices, product labelling and businesses’ compliance with relevant regulations throughout 2026. During a recent inspection at a chain supermarket on İsmet Paşa Street in Konacık Neighbourhood, teams identified products that had passed their expiry dates.
