Leading Lawyer Radmila Nikitina, Head of the Antimonopoly Law Group of the Law Firm "YUST", commented for the Kommersant newspaper on the complaint of a raw milk supplier for Unimilk Company OJSC against the undue lowering of the raw material purchase prices and on the subsequent ruling the manufacturer guilty of a breach of the competition law: "It is currently difficult to evaluate the judicial perspectives of the case without having consulted its materials. One can only say that the company will protect its interests if it is able to prove that it applied similar conditions to similar transactions. If the courts confirm the presence of corpus delicti in the company’s actions, one may suppose that this will cause changes to the commercial policy of the company aimed at establishing a more just pricing. In general, it should be pointed out that the company’s interests are directly opposite to those of the agricultural suppliers. Therefore, it is no wonder that said suppliers complain against Unimilk and other manufacturers. This fact does not mean that the manufacturing companies systematically breach the law. Nor does it mean that the antimonopoly authority is ineffective".
Now Unimilk faces a fine from 300 thousand to 1 million roubles.
