The Profeco sent a "request" to municipalities to review the distribution and marketing systems of the tortilla, which the Mexicans spend 8 percent of their food expenditure and national level involves an expenditure of 3 000 to $ 400 million , said Bernardo Altamirano, head of the agency in joint conference 

The Ministry of Economy (SE), the Federal Competition Commission (CFC) and the Federal Consumer Protection (Profeco) accused the authorities of 98 municipalities, without specifying which ofviolating Article 28 of the Constitution that prohibits monopolies and and federal laws protect consumers and foster economic competition in their local regulations tortilla certain behaviors, such as colluding to fix or raise prices and to prevent and hinder the entry of new players into the market to the detriment of consumers.

The Profeco sent a "request" to municipalities to review the distribution and marketing systems of the tortilla, which the Mexicans spend 8 percent of their food expenditure and national level involves an expenditure of 3 000 to $ 400 million , said Bernardo Altamirano, head of the agency in joint conference with Bruno Ferrari, Eduardo Perez Mota, responsible for the SE and the CFC, respectively.

However, this "requirement" is not binding, meaning that any such agency may require local authorities tocomply, the three officials acknowledged.

"It is a call very respectful but very strong to all local authorities because their local regulations contravene the Constitution and federal laws," he said Ferrari.

However, Profeco announced they will launch a parallel campaign to showcase the municipalities incurtortilla practices anti-competitive because they warned, in the end "consumers are also voters," and alsois ongoing research on CFCs alleged collusion of the tortilla to increasing the price of food.
