Recently, a number of consumers have reported that there is something wrong with Starbucks instant coffee sold in some well-known supermarkets.

In a well-known supermarket, Starbucks instant coffee costs 39.8 yuan per box, packed in 5 strips, and the dealer is Guangzhou Baiyi Food Trading Co., Ltd.

In another well-known supermarket, the same instant coffee costs 46.8 yuan a box, and the dealer is Guangzhou Baiyi.

In Starbucks Coffee Shop, there are 4 instant coffees for 40 yuan a box, and the dealer is Shanghai Xingyuan Trade Company.

The reporter showed the two kinds of coffee to the staff. Comparison of true and fake Starbucks instant coffee: the coffee boxes bought in the supermarket are larger than those in Starbucks coffee shops, with an extra bar of coffee in each box and the anti-counterfeiting sign of "Guangzhou Baiyi".

Starbucks China responded: Starbucks brew-free instant coffee is imported in China and is only available at Starbucks Coffee Shop and Starbucks Tmall flagship store.

Starbucks (China) customer service staff said that it is not clear "Guangzhou Baiyi" what is going on?

In May last year, police in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province were involved in investigating a case of counterfeit Starbucks products and found that the counterfeit products were produced in Guangzhou.

On January 4, 2019, the police arrested suspect Zhen and others in a residential building in Guangzhou. The police seized a large number of fake Starbucks instant coffee ready to be sent to other places in "biscuit" boxes. In a warehouse in Guangzhou, a sub-packaging workshop was also found, the scene was dirty, and there were no health protection measures at the sub-packaging site.

Since the end of 2017, the gang has made an illegal profit of more than 10 million yuan. At present, the relevant suspects have been approved by the procuratorial organs for arrest.
