In the context of ex officio investigation and complaint regarding anti-competitive practices.

A surprise on-site inspection in the production/importation and distribution of beer and alcoholic beverages was carried out by the Competition Commission, as part of an ex officio investigation and complaint regarding anti-competitive practices.

As noted, in an announcement by the committee, the conduct of such checks is carried out in companies from which evidence of anti-competitive practices in the investigated market can be collected and does not prejudge that the companies have engaged in anti-competitive behavior nor does it prejudge the outcome of the investigation.

The committee points out that within the framework of its powers, it will intervene as an immediate priority where deemed necessary and will examine every relevant case that comes to its attention, by submitting a complaint, request for leniency or anonymous relevant information through the secure digital environment (whistleblowing). or otherwise, and will impose severe administrative sanctions on companies that may engage in anti-competitive practices.
