JC Seafood Recalls 275G Salmon Portions Sold at Woolworths in WA

In this article (3)
JC Seafood Company has recalled its 275-gram Sweet Chilli and Lime Salmon Portions from Woolworths supermarkets across Western Australia after identifying undeclared soy in the product.
The recall affects batches marked with a best-before date of 18 September 2026. The presence of soy poses a potential health risk to consumers with a soy allergy or intolerance.
Allergen risks prompt shelf pull
Consumers who have purchased the affected product are advised to return it to the place of purchase, and anyone concerned about their health should seek medical advice.
Shoppers who purchased the affected batch can return the packs to their local Woolworths store for a full cash refund. Those who consumed the salmon and feel unwell have been urged to seek medical advice.
Supply chain labelling scrutiny
Mislabelling incidents remain a persistent compliance hazard for seafood processors packing value-added marinades and ready-to-cook proteins. Adding pre-mixed glazes often introduces secondary ingredient streams, multiplying the points where allergen tracking can fail.
For national supermarket operators like Woolworths, undeclared allergen recalls create immediate operational friction at store level. Staff must execute rapid stock sweeps across distribution centres and hundreds of retail bays to eliminate liability.
Regulatory compliance tracking
Packaged seafood recalls tied to packaging errors have drawn tighter scrutiny across Australian supply chains this year as regulators press suppliers on quality assurance audits. JC Seafood Company has not reported any illnesses linked to the batch.
Health authorities and retailer quality teams will monitor store compliance until the product’s 18 September 2026 shelf-life window closes.
