24 Sep 2026 Plaček Pet Products s.r.o.Plaček Pet Products: 36.4 million CZK for minimum prices on pet food CzechiaCartels and collusion €1.49m

From January 2013 to March 2022, the distributor of premium pet food and pet supplies imposed minimum resale prices on its retailers and threatened sanctions if they were undercut. In a settlement procedure, the Úřad pro ochranu hospodářské soutěže (Czech Office for the Protection of Competition, ÚOHS) imposed 36.438 million CZK; the company ended the conduct after the inspection and introduced a compliance programme.

What organisations can take from it

Never enforce recommended retail prices with supply stops or sanctions – sales teams need clear rules on this.

Relevance to training and awareness

Price requirements imposed on retailers in sales

Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
