The Competition Commission is accusing two companies of engaging in anti-competitive behavior during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. The companies, Medmart Health and BabyBug, are accused of conspiring to fix prices of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as face masks and dividing the market by allocating customers among themselves. The alleged collusion occurred around December 2020, and involved the two companies agreeing to adjust prices and stock availability on certain days in order to limit competition between themselves.
