Over 44,000 pounds of shrimp recalled due to possible listeria contamination
A seafood company has issued a recall on its Cooked & Peeled Ready-To-Eat Coldwater Shrimp Meat due to a potential listeria contamination. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the recall from Bornstein Seafoods Inc., which affects 44,550 pounds of shrimp, after a routine sampling detected listeria monocytogenes. As noted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), listeria is a 'bacteria that can contaminate many foods.' Although symptoms can vary, a listeria infection 'can cause invasive illness and intestinal illness.' Listeria infection is the third leading cause of death from foodborne illness in the United States, killing roughly 260 people per year. According to the FDA's report, the shrimp was sold in either one-pound or five-pound bags and was distributed to retailers in California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia of Canada. The affected bags of shrimp are listed alongside the product's UPC code and lot number in the report. No illnesses have currently been reported. All customers who have purchased the affected bags of shrimp are urged to return them to the place of purchase in exchange for a full refund. Any questions regarding the recall can be directed to the company using the email address Andrew@ The recall came on the same day P. East Trading Corp. recalled its Salted Smoked Split Herring because it may have been contaminated with Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium that can cause illness or death. Botulism is a rare but serious condition caused by a toxin that attacks the body's nerves. Symptoms include general weakness, dizziness, double-vision, trouble with speaking or swallowing, difficulty in breathing, abdominal distension, and constipation. There have been no reported illnesses so far. The last two years have also seen an alarming and unexplained rise in recalls. In 2024, approximately 300 food recalls were issued, with those recalls being linked to nearly 1,400 illnesses, a Public Interest Research Group report revealed. Out of the 1,400 illnesses, 487 people became sick enough to require hospitalization, and 19 people died. While those numbers are still low when weighed against the entire U.S. population, they are also double the number of hospitalizations and deaths from food-borne illnesses in 2023.

Growth in this market is supported by increased awareness of hair health, rising demand for personalized and natural products, and a stronger focus on personal grooming. Consumers are seeking solutions that cater to specific hair needs influenced by factors such as lifestyle and environmental exposure. In response, brands are introducing advanced formulations with clean labels, sustainable packaging, and eco-conscious ingredients.

Additionally, the expansion of e-commerce has made premium and salon-quality hair care products more accessible, driving further market penetration across the region. Key Market Drivers: Rising Consumer Awareness and Focus on Hair Health An increasing focus on hair health and hygiene is a major driver of the North America hair care market. Consumers are shifting from basic cleansing and styling products toward solutions that offer added health benefits, such as strengthening, anti-hair fall, scalp care, and growth stimulation. Data from Advanced Dermatology shows that Americans spend around USD 897 annually on personal appearance, including an average of USD 277 on haircuts. This investment in grooming underscores the consumer priority for high-quality hair care. The trend is further fueled by digital platforms where influencers, dermatologists, and brands share educational content, reviews, and product insights. Consumers are also more informed about the effects of stress, diet, and environmental pollutants on hair, prompting demand for clean, sulfate- and paraben-free formulations. As a result, brands are developing dermatologist-tested and ingredient-transparent products to meet evolving health-conscious needs, contributing to robust market expansion. Key Market Challenges: High Market Saturation and Intense Competition The North American hair care market is marked by intense competition and high saturation. Major players such as L'Oreal, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and Johnson & Johnson dominate the space with extensive product lines, established brand loyalty, and large-scale distribution. Simultaneously, niche and digitally native brands are entering the market, offering unique products aimed at specific needs such as clean beauty or textured hair care. This saturation creates challenges for new entrants to gain visibility and for existing players to sustain customer loyalty. Companies are compelled to invest heavily in R&D, digital marketing, and continuous innovation to remain competitive. Price wars and promotional tactics further impact profit margins, particularly for smaller brands.
