Burger Manufacturing Company cleared over horsemeat
New tests have cleared a Powys company suspected of supplying beef burgers containing horsemeat.
The Burger Manufacturing Company based near Builth Wells withdrew its products in February after tests suggested they contained more than 1% horsemeat.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) said "subsequent tests confirmed the presence of horse DNA at levels below the 1% threshold for reporting."
The company said the FSA could have waited for conclusive tests.
