Violation
Co-op Sapporo, a corporation with capital of 300 million yen or less, engaged in manufacturing and sales of food products at its stores, and entrusted delivery of products to customers. The cooperative deducted amounts from subcontract payments, totaling 25,374,079 yen across 27 subcontractors, by subtracting certain amounts (from items labeled A to O). On April 25, 2024, Co-op Sapporo paid the deducted amounts to the subcontractors. Despite being previously advised on June 22, 2012, that reducing the amounts for monthly rebates and annual sponsorship rebates violated the Subcontract Act, the cooperative continued similar practices. The Fair Trade Commission issued a recommendation on May 22, 2024, based on violations of Article 4, Paragraph 1, Item 3 of the Subcontract Act (prohibition of reduction of subcontract payments).
