Violation
On September 24, 2024, the Japan Fair Trade Commission issued an order to Kyokuto Kaihatsu Kogyo Co., Ltd. and ShinMaywa Industries, Ltd. (hereafter 'the two companies') for engaging in a concerted effort to raise the sales prices of specific special-purpose vehicle products. The companies held monthly meetings at the managerial level where they exchanged information regarding sales prices. Due to rising prices of raw materials such as steel, they agreed to increase the prices of certain products, including those installed on dust carts and tailgate lifts, by no later than February 4, 2022, for sales from April 1, 2022. Furthermore, as steel prices continued to rise, they agreed to further increase the prices of these products, especially those requiring significant price increases, such as vehicle-mounted equipment and tailgate lifts for dust carts, by no later than February 7, 2023, for sales from April 1, 2023. By jointly agreeing to raise the sales prices of these products, the two companies substantially restricted competition in the market for specific special-purpose vehicle products, contrary to public interest.
