Advice for businesses:
Food businesses should check their egg supply chain and the codes stamped on eggs within their control. It is possible eggs with this code originating from Yasensvit Ltd, Kyiv, Ukraine, may have been repacked by other businesses in the UK and have different business details and packing centre codes detailed on the outer packaging. Businesses are advised to immediately stop using or selling eggs with the stamp 3UA1012066, undertake product withdrawals, and where there have been retail sales, to undertake product recalls. If you have been supplied with these eggs, dispose of them safely. These eggs should not be diverted to further processing.

Action taken by the company

We are asking enforcement authorities to ensure that businesses who have received the affected eggs take action to ensure that these are withdrawn from the market and, where there have been retail sales, recalled. We are also asking the local authorities to inform the FSA of product withdrawal and recall actions.

What you should do

Consumers should check the code stamped on the egg; do not eat eggs stamped with 3UA1012066. Instead, dispose of them at home. These eggs are not sold in large retailers, like supermarkets. Most are used within the catering supply chain; however, some eggs may also be sold at small shops such as corner shops.
