SHANGHAI (Reuters) – China’s market regulator on Monday said it has fined online discount retailer Vipshop Holdings Ltd 3 million yuan ($463,936.66) for committing unfair competition acts.
An investigation found that from August through December last year, Vipshop had developed a system to obtain information on brands it and competitors sold which gave Vipshop a competitive advantage, the State Administration for Market Regulation said on its website.
