Coca-Cola announced that production at its Fairlife dairy facility has been suspended. The shutdown follows a ransomware attack that compromised the plant’s systems. Fairlife produces ultra‑filtered

milk varieties, including fat‑free, whole, and chocolate options. The plant is located in Germantown, New York, and was photographed on Dec. 3, 2024. Fairlife’s filtering process increases

protein while reducing sugar and lactose in its products. This technology has contributed to the recent surge in high‑protein dairy consumption. The protein trend has grown alongside the popularity

of Ozempic and other GLP‑1 drugs. The ransomware incident highlights cybersecurity risks in food production. Coca-Cola has not yet indicated when the Fairlife plant will resume operations.
