The punishment of Auchan can be deterrent
The 20.5 million HUF fine can be deterrent. The Auchan Hungary Ltd. has been fined because the chain distributed import milk from the Czech Republic under the purchase price.
According to experts, no further restrictions are needed, but to comply with the existing laws is required, since the authorities acted effectively only one or two relevant cases in the latter period.
Moreover, the number of fines are showing a decrease, because every year fewer and less serious offenses occur – reports Világgazdaság Online.
