The dip was recalled in 2023 over the possible presence of salmonella.
Foodstuffs South Island was sentenced in the Christchurch District Court, after selling 39 units of the recalled hummus to consumers.
The deputy director-general for NZ Food Safety, Vincent Arbuckle, said the hummus should have been removed from shelves, and there was a significant failure in the company's recall system.
