How many FDA food recalls come from Virginia?

232 of the 29,386 FDA food recall records published since 2012 were issued by firms located in Virginia, which ranks it 28 among the states and territories. 89 are Class I.

Does this mean the food was sold in Virginia?

No. The state on a recall record is the address of the recalling firm, not the distribution area. A firm in Virginia frequently distributes nationally, and food sold in Virginia is frequently recalled by a firm in another state. Each record carries its own distribution pattern.

What this page counts

The state on an FDA recall record is the address of the recalling firm. It is not where the product was sold: a firm in Virginia frequently distributes nationally, and food bought in Virginia is frequently recalled by a firm in another state. Each record below carries its own distribution pattern.

Who regulates food in Virginia

State agency: Department of Health Division of Food & General Environmental Health Services
State food code: Food Regulations

This agency regulates retail and food-service establishments in the state. Most of the firms below are manufacturers, whose recalls are federal actions under FDA jurisdiction, so the agency named here did not issue them. FDA, retail and food service codes by state, read 2026-09-15.

Who got ill

The CDC recorded 204 foodborne outbreaks in Virginia between 2012 and 2023, with 3,957 reported illnesses, 150 hospitalisations and 1 deaths. That is 2.3% of the 9,038 foodborne outbreaks in the dataset, and 0.3 in every thousand of those reported ill died.

The cause recorded most often was Norovirus (genogroup II), in 53 of the 175 outbreaks where a cause was recorded at all.

The setting recorded most often was a sit-down restaurant, in 73 of the 176 where a setting was named.

Outbreaks: 204
Reported illnesses: 3,957
Hospitalised: 150
Deaths: 1

Foodborne outbreaks reported to CDC, National Outbreak Reporting System (NORS) for 2012 to 2023, read 2026-09-15. An outbreak is two or more illnesses traced to a common food, so this counts people rather than product, and it does not cover the recall years after 2023.

What is different about Virginia

The hazard that separates Virginia from the national picture is foreign material: 21.1% of these records name it, against 8.3% of all FDA food recalls.

By product, Virginia is weighted toward snacks and confectionery: 21.6% of the records here against 14.7% across the corpus.

These recalls stay local: 8.6% state nationwide distribution, against 20.7% across the corpus.

The volume is falling: 36 records in the three years to 2025, against 59 in the four before them. 2026 is excluded because the agency reports an enforcement action months after a firm begins a recall, so the most recent year is always incomplete.

What Virginia firms recalled for

A single recall can name more than one hazard, so these counts overlap and do not sum to 232.

By year

Counts are by the date the FDA reported the enforcement action. That date runs behind the date a firm started a recall, so the most recent year is always partial.

Firms with the most records

A firm appears here because it reported recalls, which is what a working recall procedure produces. A high count frequently reflects a single event split across many product codes rather than many separate failures.

Questions

How many FDA food recalls come from Virginia?: 232 of the 29,386 FDA food recall records published since 2012 were issued by firms located in Virginia, which ranks it 28 among the states and territories. 89 are Class I.
Does this mean the food was sold in Virginia?: No. The state on a recall record is the address of the recalling firm, not the distribution area. A firm in Virginia frequently distributes nationally, and food sold in Virginia is frequently recalled by a firm in another state. Each record carries its own distribution pattern.

All FDA food recall data

Location says where a recall was issued, not where the evidence for it lives. Krolda maps supplier documents to the clause they satisfy in FSSC 22000, IFS Food and 21 CFR 117, and routes the corrective action when the evidence is missing.

Early access

Recall records come from the openFDA food enforcement API, published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the public domain. Krolda adds the hazard classification and the clause mapping; neither is an FDA determination. Always check the FDA notice before acting on a recall.
