17 Oct 2024 Vietnam Beverage Company LimitedOFAC: USD 860,000 settlement with Vietnam Beverage over beverage sales to North Korea USABreaches of sanctions and embargoes €791,460

Vietnamese holding company Vietnam Beverage Company Limited is paying USD 860,000 under a settlement with OFAC on behalf of two subsidiaries for apparent violations of the North Korea sanctions. According to OFAC's findings, between April 2016 and October 2018 the beverage subsidiaries received payments of around USD 1,141,547 through US financial institutions on 43 occasions for the sale of alcoholic beverages to North Korea, thereby causing those institutions to export financial services to North Korea. OFAC treated the apparent violations as non-egregious and not voluntarily self-disclosed but credited its cooperation and its proactive notification of internal findings; the base penalty was USD 1,720,000.
