25 Jun 2026 Самостоятелна медико-диагностична лаборатория „Лина“ ЕООДLaboratory Lina lures customers with free blood tests – 52,097 EUR for unfair competition €52,097
On application by its competitor Ramus, the Комисия за защита на конкуренцията (Bulgarian Commission for the Protection of Competition, KZK) established that the laboratory had offered packages of medical laboratory tests free of charge nationwide over extended periods (only against a fee of 2 leva for taking blood) – conduct shown by no other market participant outside joint campaigns. It found an infringement of the general clause of unfair competition law (Art. 29 ZZK – Bulgarian Protection of Competition Act) and imposed 0.3% of 2024 turnover, i.e. 52,096.55 EUR. Appeals have been lodged against the decision.
Permanent free offers to win customers can be unfair if they deviate significantly from market practice and drive out competitors.

Following a tip-off from the Military Medical Academy (VMA), the Комисия за защита на конкуренцията (Bulgarian Commission for the Protection of Competition, KZK) found that the centre presented its gynaecological practice as a VMA branch with signs reading ‘МЦ „ЛЮЛИН МЕД“ АГ – ВМА ФИЛИАЛ’ and corresponding online information. For misleading conduct (Art. 31 ZZK – Bulgarian Protection of Competition Act) it imposed 0.4% of 2023 turnover, i.e. 9,236 leva. An appeal has been lodged against the decision.
