Last updated: 12 March 2021

SFC are recalling an extended range of SFC products because Salmonella has been found in some of their product ranges. This update extends the recall to all SFC products for certain dates, listed in the table below and adds an additional product, Little Hill Farm Chicken Breast Fillets. All batch codes are affected with best before dates up to and including 30 of June 2022. Products after this best before date are not affected.
The business put additional food safety controls in place in November 2020 to improve the safety of their products. They have now taken the precautionary step of recalling all products manufactured before the new and additional controls were put in place.

About product recalls and withdrawals

If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). The FSA issues Product Withdrawal Information Notices and Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food. In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued. This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers.
