JAKARTA - If there is a thief who really likes chocolate, maybe this case is the answer. As many as 12 tons of KitKat were lost in Europe after the truck carrying them was stolen. Until now, the vehicle has not been found. Likewise with hundreds of thousands of chocolate bars inside.
Reuters, quoted by HuffPost, reported that Nestlé on Saturday, March 28, said the truck departed from central Italy with a load of 413,793 KitKats from a new product line. The chocolate was supposed to be distributed to various countries in Europe, with the final destination in Poland. However, the truck never arrived.
Nestlé did not disclose where the truck was lost. What is certain is that not only the vehicle disappeared, but also the entire load.
Cargo theft is said to be increasingly common and is no longer only targeting high-value goods such as electronics or machinery, but also fast-moving consumer products.
KitKat itself responded in a sarcastic tone. In a separate statement, the chocolate brand said that the missing product could actually be tracked through a special batch code. Anyone who scans the batch number of the stolen chocolate will get instructions to contact KitKat.
"Although we appreciate the extraordinary taste of the perpetrators, the fact is that cargo theft is a growing problem for businesses of all sizes," KitKat said as quoted by Huffpost, Wednesday, April 1.
