Café Coffee Day, India’s pioneer and largest retail chain of coffee cafés, is a popular meeting point for many QNET distributors to meet with their teams and with prospects.
The Mumbai Police Economic Offence Wing (EOW) had instructed the Café Coffee Day chain of coffee shops in India to prevent distributors and employees of QNET and its Indian franchisee, Vihaan Direct Selling from entering its premises. EOW has been investigating QNET and Vihaan since Aug 2013 and has continued to find new ways to pursue the company and its distributors through unfair and unfounded means.
