COMPETITION AUTHORITY INITIATES INVESTIGATION AGAINST COCA COLA
The Competition Authority has taken action regarding Coca Cola. The Authority, which conducted a preliminary investigation related to the company, has initiated an investigation to determine whether the Law No. 4054 has been violated.
ALLEGATION OF "OBSTRUCTING COMPETITORS' ACTIVITIES"
