Issued since February 2013,the scandel that 100% horsemeat were sold with the lable of beef in supermarket Aldi catched extensive attention.

From Sze Sze Cecilia Tang’sPostwe can see that she mostly fouses on analysising the the company Aldi’s unethic behavoires. I ultterly agree with some of her points,such as regarding that what the Aldi did is an unethic practices and would have negative impact on the repution of the company.However, I can not agree with her that putting all blame on Aldi. Because  there was still no evidence showing that is Aldi changing beef to horsemeat to sell .Its meat supplier Comigel may also replace the meat before meat delivered to Aldi.

In my opinion, the unethic bussiness pratice violated The shakeholder theory,which caused harmful effect both on comsumers and merchants.On the one side,both Aldi and  Comigel may have negative reputation , a few customers would not like to choose food from Aldi. The companies lose trust from customers. On the customers’ side, they have to take a risk to buy food.And themselves can not garantee what they eat is safe.So  wise companies would not be willing to sacrifice the customers’ interest to gain more revenue. What they tend to is to try to benefit all the shakeholders.
