Jean was a regular shopper at East End Four Corners Supermarket, which was part of a large nationwide supermarket chain.
She was there at least once a week and sometimes more often if the specials were really good.
When Jean was there this week, she slipped on some grapes in aisle 3 and broke her ankle.
Grapes are normally found in the fruit section of the store and the store was not sure how the grapes got there or how long they had been there.
The store manager indicated that there were a number of spillages every week in the aisles in this store.
Is East End Four Corners Supermarket liable in negligence for Jean’s injury?
Would your answer be any different if Jean had slipped on some grapes in the fruit section of the store?
