Kodiak Wild Alaska Seafood Recalls Pacific Cod Fillets for Permit Violations

Kodiak Wild Alaska Seafood is recalling 25 lb vacuum-packed Pacific Cod fillets because the firm distributed frozen seafood without a required operating permit or HACCP controls.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or specific contamination events. The hazard stems from regulatory non-compliance (lack of permit and HACCP controls) rather than a confirmed high-risk pathogen or injury, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.
