China has fined six mostly foreign baby formula companies a total of 108 million USD for price-fixing, the government said on August 7, in reportedly the country’s biggest-ever anti-trust penalty. The firms fined were Mead Johnson and Abbott from the US, Dumex, a subsidiary of France’s Danone, a China arm of Royal FrieslandCampina of the Netherlands, New Zealand giant Fonterra — at the centre of a health scare this week — and China’s Biostime, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) said in a statement.
