Independent Retail Europe and EuroCommerce ask to end Territorial Supply Constraints (TSCs) once and for all at a stakeholder dialogue organised by the European Commission

On 7 April 2025, Independent Retail Europe and EuroCommerce, representing European retailers and wholesalers, asked to end Territorial Supply Constraints (TSCs) once and for all at a stakeholder dialogue organised by the European Commission. EU retailers and wholesalers explained how suppliers refuse to sell cross-border within the EU, offer different prices to distributors depending on in which EU country products will be sold to consumers and maintain unjustified differences in packaging per country to prevent products from circulating in the Single Market. TSCs increase prices and limit product choice for consumers in Europe, according to the associations. Their joint press release is available here.
