The GVH continues its targeted official actions on the market of durable foods
The Economic Competition Authority (GVH) will continue its targeted official actions on the durable food market, the aim of which is to reveal the distortions of competition in the Hungarian food product chains, the GVH informed MTI on Thursday.
The reason for the new investigation launched on February 8 is that the consumer price of many durable foods (for example, canned and quick-frozen products) has risen significantly, and in addition, there was a temporary shortage last year. Food value chains may differ from each other, but they are always multi-level, in which both Hungarian and foreign businesses can be found – they wrote.
GVH’s investigation – similar to dairy products – also covers the entire distribution chains and competitive conditions of the affected markets in the case of dairy products, in order to map whether competition could have been distorted or limited either in the retail markets of the affected product groups or at any other level of the value chain.
