Coca-Cola Products Seized in India Alleged Expiry-Date Relabeling Raid
Indian authorities raided a Navi Mumbai third-party facility and seized 8,442 cartons tied to 10 exporter companies, including Coca-Cola beverages such as Thums Up and Limca. Investigators allegedly erased and replaced expiry dates and changed nutrition/ingredient labels using chemicals and printing equipment. The case does not accuse Coca-Cola, focusing instead on the facility and exporters, raising supply-chain and brand-protection concerns.
