Highlands Coffee’s statement comes in response to a recent shocking incident, where authorities discovered over 120 tons of pork contaminated with African Swine Fever (ASF) stockpiled at Halong Canfoco’s warehouse. Among this, 2 tons had already been processed into finished products. Halong Canfoco is a well-known producer of various canned goods, including the popular Pate Cột đèn Hải Phòng, ground pork, and sterilized sausages. The entire contaminated batch has been destroyed.

However, a spokesperson for Highlands Coffee clarified that the products sourced from CAN are dry goods, not pork-based. Detailed information regarding these products will be disclosed in due course.
