London: British confectionery group Cadbury on Monday said it was withdrawing all of its 11 chocolate products made in China on concern of Melamine contamination.
The products were sold in mainland China and also exported to Taiwan and Hong Kong, with one product going to Australia.
"We believe it is appropriate to take a precautionary step to withdraw from the market all of our Cadbury chocolate products that have been manufactured in Beijing, pending further supply of fresh product," the group said in a statement.
