Polish company denies supplying horsemeat as Irish trader speaks out

The international search for the source of the horsemeat scandal has met with denials from one of the Polish suppliers involved but has become clearer closer to home.

The Irish trader who handled the meat clarified his firm’s role in the shipment of the product and reiterated his belief he did not knowingly broker horsemeat.

Martin McAdam, of McAdam Food Service, said he did not own the consignment detained in a Newry plant with suspect labelling.
