Woolworths at Madeley's Kingsway City must cough up $100,000-plus after numerous public health offences.
The conviction will result in a fine of $95,000 and costs of $7000 to Woolworths, which the City of Wanneroo began inspecting in October 2015 after a member of the public complained about their Woolworths brand Crusty Tiger Loaf, which was found to be 'unsuitable for sale'.Â

"The inspection found that Woolworths were not in compliance with a number of food standard codes," planning and sustainability director Mark Dickson said.
Woolworths was found to have failed to ensure its food handlers were skilled in food safety and food hygiene. It also failed to store food to protect it from contamination, failed to keep the store and its equipment clean and failed to "process only safe and suitable food".Â

Evidence of pests was also found.
Woolworths pleaded guilty to all charges.
"The City's follow-up inspections found that the issues were rectified," Mr Dickson said.
Also convicted this month were Nando's on Stirling Highway, Nedlands, which was found on August 9 in a routine health inspection to have failed to store potentially hazardous food under temperature control.
It also failed to maintain accessible hand wash facilities for staff and keep the premises clean.
Nando's, which also pleaded guilty, faces a $10,000 fine and $1388 in costs.
The companies were contacted for comment.
The convictions bring the number of food premises in WA convicted under the Food Act in 2016 to 15.
Others recently named and shamed were the embattled, now-closed The Curry Tree in Nedlands, Spice of India on Albany Highway in Gosnells, Belmont Tavern, Cloverdale and Little Dragon Chinese, Warwick.
