A Salford warehouse selling items online has been fined £40,000 after a court found the business was putting workers in danger.

B2C Retail, situated at Invar Business Park on Invar Road in Swinton, sells a wide range of items online through Amazon and is run by B2C Retail Limited, of which Mr Michal Kempiak serves as the company’s sole director.

Mr Kempiak appeared at Manchester and Salford Magistrates Court on Thursday (July 28) to plead guilty on behalf of the company to four offences under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

He was taken to court and handed the huge fine after initially refusing to admit the company had done anything wrong and ignoring the council's request for an interview.
