The Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI) confirmed the recalled products have been traced back to a Hungarian facility, known to be the source of the listeria.
A Countdown spokeswoman said the supermarket had been advised there was a potential risk its Bell Farms Steam Veggies, Carrot, Corn and Broccoli bags contained the bacteria.
The company withdrew one batch of the Bell Farms frozen vegetables on Friday from all Countdown, SuperValue, and FreshChoice stores and has since recalled all batches of the product. Anyone who has purchased this product can return it to any of our stores for a full refund.
Frozen vegetables generally pose no risk if cooked correctly before eating, she said. Listeria can cause illness in pregnant woman and their unborn babies, newborns, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems.
Information on the recall is available here. More information on food safety and listeria can be found here.

The robbery of Black Bull Liquor in Dublin St happened just before 5pm on Saturday, July 7, when a male armed with a hammer entered the store.
Singh said there had been several instances of shoplifting at the store in recent weeks and these had been reported to police but not followed up.
Whanganui Police Detective Sergeant David Thompson said police were called to the store at 4.52pm on Saturday after a male with a hammer demanded cash.
"An amount of cash was taken but no one was hurt," Thompson said.
"The offender left on a bicycle in the direction of Harrison St and then to the Glasgow St area."
Police have conducted a scene examination and are reviewing CCTV footage. They are appealing for sightings of a male, who was wearing a red hat, on a bicycle around 5pm on Sunday.
Anyone with information can call Detective Karl Reyland on 06 213 4180 or make an anonymous call to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
