An independent, certified lab confirmed on Wednesday, July 23, that the species of Listeria found in the Schwebel bakery in Youngstown, OH, is not the species that poses a risk to public health.
“Full production at the Youngstown facility is expected to resume within 24 hours,” Paul Schwebel, president of Schwebel Baking Co., said in a statement on Wednesday. “We remain focused on consumer safety. That goal guides our current efforts to get our Youngstown bakery back online and will allow us to produce our full range of products for our loyal customers.”
