FATAL INCIDENT AT THE MALMESBURY FEED MILL
On Monday, 10 June 2024, an explosion occurred at the Company's Malmesbury feed mill. The explosion resulted in
the injury of three individuals, one of whom tragically succumbed to their injuries during the night. The two other
individuals sustained serious injuries and are currently receiving treatment but are in a stable condition.
At this stage, the cause of the explosion is unknown and an independent investigation to ascertain the exact cause of
the incident has been launched by the Company. All safety protocols were followed during and after the incident, and
automated emergency equipment was successfully activated. Fire services were able to bring the resultant fire under
control and stabilised the environment.
Physical damage at the property is limited to the raw material intake area. At present, operating activities outside the
affected area of the feed mill can continue.
The board and management of Quantum Foods extends their sincere condolences to the family, friends and colleagues
of the deceased. The Company will provide the necessary support to the affected individuals and families during this
difficult time.
The Company would also like to thank law enforcement, fire and medical emergency services for their swift and effective
intervention.
