    UNFAIR COMPETITION PROVES HEAVY COST TO ARMENIAN COMPANIES

    Tert.am
    16.12.11

    Three Armenian dairy foods producing companies - Ashtarak Kat, Dustr
    Mariana and Ani Kat - committed gross violations in the market.

    In a number of their products they used vegetable oil, namely, coconut
    oil, which is two and a half as cheap as animal oil. The companies
    also used milk powder without informing consumers.

    "The companies thus practiced unfair competition and got superprofit,"
    Artak Shaboyan, Chairman of the RA Commission for Protection of
    Economic Competition, stated at the Commission's sitting Dec. 16.

    On the basis of this evidence, as well as given the fact that the
    Commission once warned the companies against violating the relevant
    laws, the Commission imposed fines on the companies - a AMD 50m on
    the Ashtarak Kat company, an AMD 5m fine on the Ani Kat company,
    and a 20m fine on the Dustr Mariana company.
