The Coca-Cola factory in the town of Signes, near the Mediterranean coast, produces concentrates for various drinks.

A spokesman for Coca-Cola France says employees immediately notified police and judicial authorities have opened an investigation.

Sacks containing 370 kilograms (815 pounds) of cocaine were hidden in a shipping container holding orange juice from Costa Rica, the spokesman said.

Coca leaves were reportedly used in the original Coca-Cola drink in the 19th century, although the company says cocaine has never been an ‘added ingredient.’
