Bettinehoeve advises not to consume these cheeses, because they may contain traces of Listeria monocytogenes. This can pose serious health risks, especially in risk groups such as very young children, pregnant, elderly and people with low immunity. 

No contamination has been demonstrated on the end products. A potential source of contamination has only been identified during testing in the environment at the production site. Bettinehoeve has decided to recall all matured goat cheese products (with white mold crust) as a precaution from distributors, retailers and food service partners. 

Contamination is excluded for all other products such as fresh goat’s cheeses and dairy products. These goat dairy products are not contaminated, because these products are produced at a different production location. 

Consumers can call the telephone number +31 (0) 76-502 22 47
