Complaint Against Supervisor Shameegah – Food *****s Market, Ottery Cape Town.

Complaint Against Supervisor Shameegah – Food *****s Market, Ottery Cape Town.

I am escalating a serious complaint regarding the nuts department supervisor, Shameegah, at your Ottery - Cape Town branch on 2nd June 2026 between 10h30 and 11h30 ( till time stamp shows 10h58.

I previously bought stale peanuts, and when I informed Shameegah, I calmly explained that I don’t have the luxury of time to return items due to my demanding work schedule. I pointed out to the peanut & raisins dispenser that there were some stale ones in between. Instead of assisting, she became highly confrontational and argumentative to the point where she told me I must not shop at Food *****s Market again. When I asked for her name, she rudely removed her badge and shoved it in my face.

Moreover, when I requested to speak to the manager, she told me I must go and fetch the manager myself. This aggressive and argumentative behavior was completely unacceptable. I reported this to assistant manager Chris (of whom tasted the peanuts and confirmed that some was giving off a bad after taste) , but I now request that head office review the store’s video footage between 10:30 and 11:00 to confirm her conduct. Please take disciplinary action against Shameegah and address both the product issue and her aggressive behavior. I expect a swift resolution.

No this is not true. The supervisor Shameegah was not disciplined and no one got back to me with feedback. The assistant manager Chris took my number and never considered getting back to me. I do not believe that the stores video footage was viewed. So it's okay for your supervisor Shameegah to tell customers never to come back to the Ottery hyper food*****s market store.
