The FTC has resumed enforcement of the Robinson-Patman Act (RPA) by settling with Southern Glazer's over discriminatory pricing against independent retailers and closing an investigation into Gildan Activewear after contract amendments. These actions signal renewed scrutiny of price discrimination practices in commodity sales, affecting distributors and resellers alike.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 3 sources have reported it between 25 Sep 2026 and 15 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Price rules in distribution just tightened sharply under FTC enforcement. You need to audit pricing strategies and ensure discounts are fair across resellers immediately or face costly penalties.
