7月18日，一名维权的经销商在北京丰台区伊利集团总部被保安强行抬走。据多名经销商透露，由于伊利集团长期拖欠经销商的促销费、返利及各类补贴，以及虚高的销售任务和频繁压货，已经导致许多经销商经营难以为继，被迫停业并背上巨额债务。过去两年，各地受害的经销商已在伊利总部多次维权，仅在过去两个月内，经销商就遭遇伊利使用拖拽、抬、喷消毒水等方式粗暴对待。
On July 18, a protesting distributor was forcibly carried away by security guards at the Yili Group headquarters in Fengtai District, Beijing. According to multiple distributors, Yili Group has long delayed payments of promotional fees, rebates, and various subsidies, while also imposing inflated sales targets and frequent forced stockpiling. This has driven many distributors to the brink of collapse, forcing them out of business and into heavy debt. Over the past two years, affected distributors from across the country have staged multiple protests at Yili’s headquarters. In just the past two months alone, distributors have faced violent treatment from Yili, including being dragged, carried away, and sprayed with disinfectant.
