Attention Coke lovers: It's safe to shop at Costco again

Updated

Less than a month after Costco (COST) said it was going to clear Coca-Cola's (KO) products from its shelves, the warehouse retailer has changed its mind. According to Costco Chief Financial Officer Richard Galanti, the two companies have resolved their issues and Coke will be back in the cavernous stores on Monday.

Costco's original problem was that Coke refused to meet its pricing requirements. At the time, the company's website presented this as a matter of competition, stating that "Costco is committed to carrying name brand merchandise at the best possible prices. At this time, Coca-Cola has not provided Costco with competitive pricing so that we may pass along the value our members deserve."
