Public Statement On Counterfeit Morinaga Milk Powder Products

OZ Marketing Sdn Bhd, the authorized sole distributor of Morinaga products, would like to alert the public to the circulation of counterfeit Morinaga milk powder products being sold in online marketplaces, particularly on Shopee and Lazada.
We have discovered products falsely marketed as Morinaga milk powder in 400g and 800g pack sizes. Morinaga does not produce milk powder in these pack sizes, and any item claiming to be Morinaga at 400g or 800g is counterfeit.

Counterfeit products identified include:

  • Morinaga BF-1 (Infant Milk Formula) – 400g / 800g
  • Morinaga BF-2 (Follow-on Formula) – 400g / 800g

Consumer Safety Notice

These counterfeit products are not manufactured under Morinaga's strict safety, quality, and nutritional standards. The ingredients, production processes, and overall safety of these items are unknown and may pose serious health risks—especially for infants and young children.


Actions Taken

We are:

  • Working with relevant authorities to trace the source of these products and take legal action against those involved in their distribution.
  • Increasing surveillance of online marketplaces to prevent the further spread of counterfeit Morinaga items.

How to Identify Authentic Morinaga Products

To ensure product authenticity, consumers are advised to:

  • Purchase only from authorized retailers and official online stores.
  • Note that authentic Morinaga milk powder does not come in 400g or 800g pack sizes— this is a clear sign of counterfeit goods.
  • Check for proper packaging, manufacturing details, batch numbers, expiration dates, and importer information on all Morinaga products.
