What is Business Loyalty?
Decree 274/2019 of Commercial Loyalty seeks to ensure the transparency in the information provided by producers and traders to consumers.
It establishes parameters for the communication of the price in the gondola: it must be possible to visualize the price of each product, the price must be included per unit of measure and in the case of offers or promotions, it must be displayed the previous price so that the comparison can be made at the time of purchase.
In the case of local businesses, it is very common to find prices that are not displayed or lack clarity in the price of each product, which makes it difficult to obtain information regarding the price at the time of choosing. It is a very common infraction in refrigerators and freezers.
