F&N Issues Official Statement
In response, Fraser & Neave Holdings Bhd (F&N) released a formal clarification. The company confirmed that the product with the Hebrew label was not exported to Israel, but rather to Palestine, specifically to a customer named Food Collection Co. based in Ramallah City.
F&N explained that the label includes three languages — English, Arabic, and Hebrew — based on the customer’s specific packaging request for the local market.
No Trade Ties With Israel
F&N also reaffirmed that it has never engaged in any form of trade or business relations with Israel. The company expressed its solidarity with the Palestinian people and emphasized its commitment to respecting the sensitivities of local and global communities.
“We stand with those who fight for peace and justice,” F&N said in their statement.
Mixed Reactions From Netizens
Initial outrage gave way to relief as many users appreciated the swift response and transparency from F&N. Some praised the brand’s accountability, while others called for clearer labeling practices in the future to avoid similar confusion.
The incident has led to broader conversations online about the importance of verifying information before spreading unconfirmed claims.
A Reminder to Verify Before Reacting
This controversy highlights how quickly misinformation can spread in today’s digital age — especially when it involves highly sensitive issues like the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. F&N thanked the public for their concern and reassured consumers that they remain committed to ethical and responsible operations.
