National Foods Statement 

Here’s what National Foods has to say regarding the controversy,

“Recently, an individual posted an image of National’s mango pickle with a foreign object beside it, claiming it has been found in our product. The customer was immediately contacted in the late hours of 8 October 2022. Post our conversation with him, we would like to highlight the following. 

  • He informed me that he is based outside Pakistan and that the relatives who found it cannot talk to NFL on the phone. We have requested an alternate contact number but haven’t received it so far.
  • The complainant is not sharing the product for testing.
  • A few other individuals have also posted the same image claiming that this incident happened to them. 

We have the utmost confidence in our manufacturing practices and have concluded that such an occurrence is impossible. National Foods hold ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, ISO 17025, BRC and SEDEX certifications to ensure that our customers receive the highest quality products. We export globally to several countries and comply with all relevant laws and regulations. The company takes such matters very seriously and refutes the unsubstantiated allegations. 

We thank our customers who trust us for the last five decades and look forward to creating food that enriches the lives of people everywhere.”
