Event Description

Slotting allowances are the lump-sum, up-front payments that manufacturers of food items often pay in order to get new products on supermarket shelves. The goals of the workshop were to provide a forum for manufacturers, retailers, and other interested parties to exchange views on slotting allowances, to give FTC staff an opportunity to learn more about the nature of slotting allowances and to better assess whether they raise competitive concerns.
