Fan Milk PLC, producer of FanYogo, has recalled some batches of the product after concerns raised by some customers.

Consumers who have recently purchased FanYogo have taken to social media to complain about the abnormal texture of the product prompting the company’s action.

But the company has admitted to the anomaly in a statement saying, “the root cause identified on the recent quality issue on FanYogo is due to both a recent change in our starch source and variations in handling.”

Fan Milk PLC said the batches were discovered following consumer complaints received and investigated by the Food Research Institute of the company.

Although the batches are said to be safe for consumption, the company is asking customers who find any of the batch numbers in question on the market to report to the following Fan Milk depot for replacement.

1. Anointed Steve Enterprise, Kumasi
2. Dapaduk Ventures, Tamale
3. Eve-Asa Company Limited, Kasoa
4. Bubbles Ladies Gh. Limites, Spintex
5. Little Stars Delight, Kwabenya

“We fully acknowledge that these batches do not meet the great product experience we are known for.
Our dedicated team of experts in our laboratories have conducted comprehensive tests on the batches
to investigate the cause of the problem to prevent it from happening again”, the company added in its statement.

Meanwhile, Fan Milk PLC is engaging the regulator, the Food and Drugs Authority, to resolve the matter.

Below is the full statement
