Indian authorities raided an illegal operation in Mumbai that allegedly altered expiry dates and nutritional information on food products made by PepsiCo, Nestle, Coca-Cola and Unilever for export, seizing goods worth nearly $80,000. The six-day investigation found chemicals used to remove original markings, machines for printing replacement labels and nearly 5,000 cartons, including Lay’s, Kurkure, Maggi, Knorr, Hellmann’s, Thums Up and Limca products. The warehouse was operated by privately owned Sadhana Enterprises, whose owner said the work was carried out for 19 little-known exporters. Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration head Tukaram Mundhe described the operation as systematic and called for greater supply-chain compliance. Investigators found labels showing a future manufacturing date of October 2, 2026, along with altered nutrition information on products intended for foreign markets. The police case did not accuse the global companies of wrongdoing, and it was unclear whether arrests had been made or which countries were due to receive the goods.
