History
British beef scandal
In
December 2002 it was the subject of a major scandal when allegations emerged that the chain had sold British beef, banned in France due to fears of
BSE contamination, between
1996 and
2000. In
October 2003, manslaughter charges against the firm's executives were dismissed in respect of two
vCJD sufferers, who claimed to have caught the disease from the firm's beef. Two of the firm's employees spent three months in prison prior to being acquitted. The firm's sales suffered considerably due to the scandal, but by 2004 were on the rise again.
Illegal employees scandal
On the 4th of June of 2007, it was reported that approximately 15% of Buffalo Grill's employees were foreign. A significant number of them, mostly from Africa, had
illegal immigrant status in France. The chain's management has been accused of slave-like work, unfair conditions,threats and disobeying state
labour laws by some of its former employees, who are now occupying a restaurant in
Viry-Châtillon (Essonne in the outskirts of Paris) daily from 9am to 11pm as a sign of protest.
