The law offices of Juroviesky and Ricci LLP have filed a class action lawsuit in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against the Canadian divisions of the major Chocolate manufacturers, namely Nestle, Hershey, Cadbury, and Mars for allegedly colluding to fix the prices of their chocolate products.

The suit claims that the Defendants conspired to inflate the price of their products by 5% or more at least three times during the Class Period, in violation of a variety of statutes including the Competition Act, and the various provincial Consumer Protection Acts. Chocolate sales in Canada in 2007 were approximately $1.4 Billion.

Juroviesky & Ricci LLP is working with Siskinds LLP on this matter.
