## TL;DR

This paper reports the draft genome sequence of a Listeria monocytogenes strain found in chicken sausages from Bangladesh.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the draft genome sequence of L. monocytogenes AZLM01 isolated from a food source in Bangladesh.

## Key findings

- The genome sequence of L. monocytogenes AZLM01 was successfully generated.
- The strain was isolated from ready-to-eat chicken sausage in Bangladesh.

## Abstract

Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogen that poses a significant risk of severe infections, especially in pregnant women, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. This report presents the draft genome sequence of L. monocytogenes strain AZLM01, isolated from ready-to-eat chicken sausage—a food item that has recently gained popularity in Bangladesh.
