YEREVAN, January 23./ARKA/. Armenia's state commission for economic
competition instituted administrative proceeding against "Roberto"

dissatisfaction expressed in social networks. Hundreds of consumers
received sms messages about 50% discount on the whole range, whereas
the inspection showed that the discount was offered only on part of
the goods.

announce its decision later.

of the investigation on procurement of foodstuffs, implements and
household goods for orphanages and elderly homes.

in collusive tendering in public procurement. The commission reviewed
over 200 tenders held by 88 organizations during its monitoring.

sector procurements and in most cases are the main food suppliers.
