The Consumer Council of Fiji is warning consumers to be careful when buying brands that make a claim to a certain country of origin.

Chief Executive Premila Kumar says a recent investigation has revealed that some CEBO sandals have misleading labels.

“Most of the CEBO sandals sold in Fiji are not from Czechoslovakia – it is not made in Czechoslovakia – it is made in China and this information is not disclosed to the public.”
