The Competition Authority has launched an investigation into 10 companies that provide mass catering services to public institutions. According to the authority's statement, the inquiry will be conducted based on suspicions that the companies acted in concert during mass catering tenders to restrict competition and that this situation led to public loss.
Within the scope of the investigation, it will be examined whether the companies engaged in collusive behavior in various catering tenders and whether this caused public institutions to purchase these services at higher costs.
The companies under investigation by the Competition Authority are as follows:
- - Akyol
- - Aş Dünyası
- - Azık Yemek
- - Bircan
- - Emiroğulları Yemek
- - Gusto
- - Kaf Yemek
- - Kalfoğlu Yemek
- - Paraf Yemek
- - Şimal Yemek
The authority emphasized that the submission of independent and competitive bids in mass catering tenders is important for the effective use of public resources. It was reported that investigations into public tenders will continue with the same sensitivity.
