Four of the world's leading vitamin manufacturers have settled a $130-million lawsuit that was initiated by a Quebec consumers group.
Hoffmann-Laroche, BASF, Rhone-Poulenc and Lonza were found guilty six years ago.
The verdict: hiking the price of vitamins and various products.
Now the result: money tobe divided between local non-profit organizations and companies that bought the vitamins for their products.
Individuals will not get any cash.
So why sue then?
Pro bono!
For the public good ;-)
