New Delhi: India's food safety regulator inspected a Pernod Ricard factory last week and collected liquor samples, four sources said, as part of a wider investigation into the $40 billion sector in which Diageo has faced scrutiny.
One of the sources, an Indian government official, said Pernod had been told it needs to improve hygiene at the plant in the southern city of Bengaluru, and that markings signalling the use of recycled plastic on its bottles need to be correct.
