UAE confirms markets free of GreenWise berries recalled in US over E. coli

## UAE Markets Safe from Recalled Berries

The United Arab Emirates has confirmed that its markets are unaffected by the recent recall of GreenWise frozen berries in the United States. The recall was initiated due to concerns over potential E. coli contamination.

## Ministry's Assurance

The UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment conducted thorough checks and confirmed that no recalled GreenWise products have entered or been sold in the UAE. This assurance comes after a detailed review of import and local market distribution data by regulatory authorities.
