Nestle has recalled several batches of its important infant nutrition products, including SMA, BEBA, and NAN infant and follow-on formulas, in many countries across Europe, Africa, the Americas, and Asia. The recall was issued because the products may be contaminated with a toxin that could cause nausea and vomiting in babies.
The recall had started on a smaller scale in December, but it has now been extended to more countries. This comes as a new challenge for Nestle CEO Philipp Navratil, who recently took over the company. He is working to restart growth by reviewing the company’s product portfolio after a period of management changes and difficulties.
Nestle has urged parents and caregivers to check their products and avoid using any affected batches. The company is taking steps to ensure safety and prevent further problems while addressing the recall.
