| 3rd Mar 2006 | Questionable Practice | Coca-Cola threatens UK government over schools |
| Report |
| Coca-Cola warned the British education secretary it might withdraw its vending machines network from schools over her ban on "junk food", letters show. The company told her last November that the proposed ending of fizzy drinks sales would make the business unviable. It said schools would lose money and pupils would suffer from the removal of such "a highly efficient country-wide beverage distribution system". The letter said its commercial experience suggested that in the longer term its existing business model would not be viable or profitable. "We would, in addition, almost certainly be unable to deliver the significant revenue gain that many schools currently enjoy from vending." Withdrawing its machines - which were in schools at their request - was "a real possibility". In other words, if you dont keep on selling junk foods in your schools we will withdraw your funding. |
