Tiger Brands Listeria Update TIGER BRANDS LIMITED “Tiger Brands” or “the Company” (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 1944/017881/06) Share code: TBS ISIN: ZAE000071080 Tiger Brands Listeria Update Tiger Brands confirms that Enterprise Foods received a report from the Department of Health (DoH) on 8 March 2018 which confirms the presence of the Listeria monocytogenes ST6 (LST6) strain in the Polokwane factory. This follows environmental swabs taken at the factory on 2 February 2018. The health and safety of consumers is our number one priority and we are deeply concerned by the detection of LST6 in our factory. Together with our staff, business partners and the relevant authorities we are working to mitigate risks to consumers. We are well advanced in the national recall of all ready-to-eat chilled processed meat products, which we initiated on Sunday. Our Polokwane and Germiston factories remain closed whilst we conduct a deep cleaning process. Tiger Brands acknowledges that it is dealing with a national crisis which has impacted customers, consumers and the industry. Tiger Brands intends being at the forefront of finding a solution, and to this end, we have appointed a team of local and international scientific experts to attempt identify the root cause of LST6.
