Abstract E.col. has been an important issues in most countries overall the world since 1982. This study was conducted to examine the levels of foodborne microbial contamination in food samples displayed in Nyala markets –South Darfur State - Sudan . A total of 778 food samples were microbiologically examined for their contamination with E. coli, the microbiological examination was followed by a physical confirmatory test. The results showed that almost all the food samples collected from the study area are contaminated with several strains of bacteria, while 71(9.1%) of the food samples under study proved to contain E. coli. Thus unhygienic practice may considered the risk factor associated with food processing and contamination. Health professional in the area of the study are recommended to have strategic plans to combat and reduce the spread of the foodborne pathogens, with the aim of controlling their outbreak in the community.
