A significant product recall has been issued for fresh Atlantic salmon fillets sold in vacuum-sealed packaging by "Achim Zano Fish" in Israel. The company, in coordination with the Ministry of Health's Food Service, announced an urgent call for consumers to return the product and refrain from eating it. The recall was initiated following customer complaints. An investigation revealed a critical error on the product's label, incorrectly stating the expiration date as October 31, 2027, instead of the correct date, October 31, 2026. This means the salmon is no longer fit for consumption and has been past its expiry for several days, with the erroneous label potentially misleading consumers into believing it had a much longer shelf life.
"Achim Zano Fish" has begun an immediate collection of the affected product from all distribution channels, points of sale, and retail chains. The Ministry of Health and the marketer are reinforcing the warning, urging anyone who purchased the salmon recently and has it in their refrigerator or freezer to avoid consuming it entirely to prevent potential gastrointestinal issues or other health risks. The recalled product is "Fresh Atlantic Salmon Fillet" in vacuum packaging, marketed by "Achim Zano Fish," weighing approximately 1.5 kg. The manufacturer is DCD from the Netherlands, with a fishing date of October 18, 2026, and shipment code 5231/194/26. The incorrect expiration date listed is 31/10/27.
A statement from the "Achim Zano Fish" factory in Ashdod requested that customers who possess the product not consume it. The company is collecting the product from distribution channels in coordination with the Ministry of Health. Consumers with questions can contact the company at 08-8521215 or via email.
