Mondelez has provided assurances that none of its products contain Salmonella in response to a number of media reports.
Recent articles suggested a shortage in supply of some brands was due to Salmonella in products or factories owned by the company. Mondelez said operations at some plants had been disrupted but this was because of audits and cleaning and disinfection work.
A Mondelez statement said safety of products and consumers health is always the highest priority.
“As a precautionary measure, the company decided to temporarily stop the production of some products. Mondelez International ensures with confidence that all its biscuits on the market are safe, do not contain Salmonella and do not raise any food safety concerns,” according to the statement.
