Over 12 tons (413,793 units) of special Formula 1-themed KitKat bars were stolen on March 26, 2026, while in transit between a factory in central Italy and their destination in Poland. The truck and its cargo vanished during the European shipment, prompting an investigation by Nestlé and local authorities.
Wonderful social media stories and images followed in a positive way for Nestle’s product. A great way of putting a positive spin on a bad situation.
