For immediate release /June 20, 2024: The Management of RITCO Distillery is seriously concerned about the early Thursday morning June 20,  incident at one of its branches in Pleebo, Maryland County which is reported by some media outlets that expired goods discovered by the government of Liberia at its warehouse were meant for sale.

We want to clearly state that the   goods discovered by the government in our warehouse in Pleebo were packed for disposal since 2023 while awaiting the approval of the rightful authority

On this basis therefore,  we have been hearing rumors that one of our former employees who was dismissed for financial malpractice has been engaged in deadly propaganda spreading fake and misleading information that goods packed in our warehouse awaiting  disposal are being sold to customers for consumption which is not true.

Surprisingly this morning, the court ordered authorities to enter our warehouse in Pleebo and expose goods waiting for disposal.

However, the goods being disposed of in our warehouse were not RITCO products but from our business partners.

We want to encourage our customers to remain calm, as we are abiding by all necessary procedures to supply the best and healthier consumable goods in the markets.
