what's wrong with this label?

From the "ginger people" (they sell stuff made of ginger, and their emblem is a person carved of ginger root), I have a bottle of ginger syrup. Lovely stuff. Among other things, it says:
Store in pantry. Does not require refrigeration.

Redbird and I discussed it, and concluded that maybe it's like honey, with a high enough sugar content to discourage bacteria growth. Being anglophone, we did not read the next line.

Conserver dans le garde-manger. Réfrigérer après ouverture.

I wonder what they were thinking.

Their ginger candies, and similar ones, are the best thing I have ever found for my "functional dyspepsia," which is a medical term for "bad digestion." They come in several flavors.
