CCP warns 20 brands for dubious ‘End Season Sales’

Competition Commission of Pakistan (CCP) has taken notice of fake “End Season Sale” announced by different brands and issued notices to them, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

According to details, the CCP conducted thorough survey in different markets of Islamabad and Rawalpindi and found that 20 brands offered 30 to 50 percent discount and displayed banners highlighting this concession.

Actually, the discount was offered on low-quality and less popular products, the CCP said, adding the situation is totally different on original products which carry less discount or nothing.

This kind of situation brought confusion among customers and they feel uncomfortable to buy any product, the CCP ruled.

After observing the situation, the CCP issued several notices to different brands in which these brands asked to clarify their position.
