18 Mar 2024 two South African removal companiesRemovals cartel: two South African removal companies pay ZAR 40m over cover quotes €1.94m
On 18 March 2024 the Competition Tribunal (South Africa's competition adjudicator) confirmed a settlement in which two removal companies, subsidiaries of a transport group, admitted involvement in a cartel based on cover quotes; it affected jobs for government departments, large companies and private customers, with the alleged conduct running from 2007 to at least 2012. One company faced 649 and the other 37 instances; both are jointly and severally liable for an administrative penalty of 40,000,000 ZAR. As part of the settlement, the Competition Commission (competition authority) agreed to withdraw its case against a sister company.
Cover quotes submitted to let a competitor win are bid rigging – even many small individual jobs add up to heavy penalties.
