Royal Seafood

Royal Seafood Baza was a New York-based food processing company primarily involved in the production and distribution of ready-to-eat fish and fishery products, including salt-cured and pickled herring. The company gained significant attention in the life sciences and regulatory sectors following a series of major food safety violations and a widespread recall of its products due to Listeria monocytogenes contamination. In 2018, the U.S. Department of Justice, on behalf of the FDA, entered a consent decree of permanent injunction against the company and its owners, effectively halting its operations. The case is frequently cited in discussions regarding Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) compliance within the food and health sectors.
