Rola Cola is distributed in 22 countries and sold internationally.
History
Although it was no longer sold in the UK, because of a change of distribution, comedian Peter Kay often mentioned it in his routines[1]. Rola Cola was re-launched into the UK in 2013 by CBL Drinks[1]
The Coca-Cola Company attempted to sue Rola Cola in the UK, but lost the case. They then attempted to sue Rola Cola in the U.S. for the same claims used in the UK.
