ANMAT ordered the immediate prohibition of the production, packaging, and sale of seven products of coffee that were circulating with false sanitary registrations. The measure applies to all presentations, batches, and expiration dates.
According to confirmation from the regulatory entity, several brands were using nonexistent RNPA and RNE or those belonging to other establishments. This led to a formal investigation and the initiation of proceedings against the companies involved.

Which brands were banned by ANMAT
The National Administration of Drugs, Food and Medical Technology ordered the withdrawal of the products Caffé del Doge, Café Sol, Caffé del Ponte Rialto, and Expresso Café Crema. The order was published under number 8385/2025.
The investigation began following a complaint received by INAL regarding "Puro café espresso estilo italiano tostado natural en grano, Doge Rosso Blend." Upon inspecting the packaging, inspectors detected that the declared RNPA and RNE numbers did not exist or were not valid.
How the involved plants operated
During inspections, ANMAT verified that the inspected establishments did not have sanitary authorization and were packaging coffee for different brands without complying with current regulations.

In addition, the use of registrations belonging to other producers was confirmed, a maneuver that rendered the products directly "counterfeit," according to the agency's definition.
