Overview
- Makro is recalling its 'Deluxe Christmas' corporate gift package after a production fault may have left glass shards in a jar of pasta sauce that is not safe to consume.
- Makro asks purchasers to notify recipients and colleagues about the hazard, offers a 10% refund to buyers, and accepts leftover packages returned to its stores.
- Jumbo is recalling its own-brand 'Aardappelgratin kruidenboter' because improper sealing can cause the product to spoil before the marked date.
- The affected Jumbo gratin carries best-before dates up to 21 January 2026, and customers can return it to any store for a full refund without a receipt.
- Jumbo expressed regret over the issue and said it will work to prevent a recurrence, as regional outlets amplify both companies' consumer warnings.
