The Competition Protection Office announced it is investigating Mlin Korošec, Mlinopek, Mlinotest, Panvita and Žito, saying there are grounds to suspect the food companies had engaged in the fixing of wheat purchase prices.

The anti-trust watchdog, which launched the proceedings at the end of February, wrote that the five were suspected of violating the ban on cartel agreements and of acting in concert to exchange information on the purchase prices of wheat and to fix the prices.
