Cadbury Schweppes is to face prosecution over last year's salmonella scare at its Marlbrook factory in Herefordshire.
The confectionery giant recalled millions of chocolate bars in June last year after a leaking pipe affected products.
Birmingham City Council said it would prosecute Cadbury for three breaches of health and safety legislation. Each offence carries a maximum penalty of an unlimited fine and/or two years' imprisonment.
The company has been summoned to appear at Birmingham Magistrates Court on 15 June.
