Mumbai: Indian authorities have raided an illegal operation in Mumbai that faked expiry dates and nutritional information on popular food export products manufactured by PepsiCo, Nestle, Coca-Cola and Unilever, seizing goods worth nearly $80,000.
Reuters got exclusive access to the warehouse last week as food officers conducted a six-day investigation. A photographer saw chemicals used to remove manufacturers' original expiry dates and ingredient labels, machines to print and apply replacements and scores of label packs for products including Lay's potato chips and Maggi noodles.
