A Food Safety Department team raided an unauthorised tapioca chips manufacturing unit at Mullamparappu in the district on Thursday.
Official sources said that the company had used packaging material that bore an address in Coimbatore.
In the first place, the manufacturer had no sanction to produce the chips. And, the manufacturer had used a brand name illegally, said G. Karunanidhi, District Officer for Food Safety and Drug Administration.
The raiding team found the oil used for making the chips to be substandard. The confiscated items were worth about Rs. 80,000, he said.
