Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

Shibaguchi Corporation, in relation to a specific civil engineering project ordered by Kagawa Prefecture, coordinated with other local business operators to agree on the selection of the planned contractor within each district. They then determined the planned contractor from among the bidders, and restricted competition by either submitting higher bids than the planned contractor or not participating in the bidding. This conduct was found to limit fair competition and was subject to an order for corrective measures by the Fair Trade Commission.
