Police Seize 1,000 lbs. of Cocaine at Nespresso Factory

THAT’S WHY IT’S SO EXPENSIVE! –

May 5, 2022 – Police analysis determined the substance was cocaine. A search of five shipping containers “delivered the same day by train allowed for the seizure of more than 500kg of this drug,” police added.

Police said they set up a large security perimeter around the factory during the operation, which also involved a large contingent of customs officers.

The units containing the drugs were isolated, and the substance did not contaminate production at the plant, the statement said.

The initial investigation indicated the shipment originated in Brazil, police said, adding that the seized cocaine was determined to be more than 80% pure, with an estimated street value of over 50m Swiss francs (£41m).

“It appears that all of the drugs were destined for the European market,” police said.
