Pomerantz Law Firm Initiates Class Action Against Celsius Holdings Amid Safety Concerns

Class Action Filed Against Celsius Holdings

In a significant move, Pomerantz LLP has announced the filing of a class action lawsuit against Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CELH) and certain of its officers. This lawsuit was lodged in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida and is cataloged under case number 26-cv-62465.
