Product Recall for Knorr Brown Onion Gravy

National Recall Knorr “Brown Onion Gravy”

Knorr, one of Unilever’s food brands in South Africa, has recently discovered that a small batch of Knorr “Brown Onion Gravy” packets mistakenly contain the ingredients of the Knorr “Professional Brown Sauce Base.” As a result, the affected stock contains cow’s milk and soy as allergens, which are not declared on the list of ingredients in the Knorr “Brown Onion Gravy” packaging.

Knorr requests that consumers who have purchased any packets of the Knorr "Brown Onion Gravy" marked BB 11 DEC 2025 KM 4163 E14A or BB 12 DEC 2025 KM 4164 E14A do not consume the products and return the product to the nearest retailer for a refund or notify Unilever SA via our Consumer Careline on 0860 331 441 or Consumer Engagement Centre WhatsApp line on +27 67 429.

“As a brand that believes that good food matters, the health and well-being of our consumers is of utmost importance. When the recent findings came to our attention, we immediately seized production and made the necessary adjustments to rectify the situation. We are committed to ensuring the highest quality and safety standards for our products that South Africans love and trust.
