Fairlife, Coca-Cola's dairy brand, has halted U.S. production following a ransomware cyberattack affecting its Webster, New York facility and broader operations. The company is assessing the scope of the breach and impact on supply.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Digital Health. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.

The Wire takeaway

A major dairy producer just went dark, and every distributor and retailer that depends on Fairlife inventory now has a 72-hour window to find substitute supply. If you make alternative dairy products or plant-based substitutes, your sales team should be calling their buyers today.
