ICYMI Zimbabwean authorities to recall some TigerBrands products, this after the company confirmed that they would remove Purity Essential Baby Powder, which contains unacceptable levels of asbestos which causes cancer.

One year ago, Tiger Brands announced that it was withdrawing 20 million of its canned vegetable products because of a leak in a small number of its cans.

It said the financial impact of the recall, including the cost of the potentially affected stock that may be written off, transport and storage costs, as well as the loss of margin on the returned stock, is estimated at between R500 million and R650 million. Tiger Brands said a leak in a can presented a risk of secondary microbial contamination after the canned products are dispatched into the marketplace.Share article
