Marketing Law
“Marketing law covers all those communication channels between companies and customers”
Marketing law covers all those communication channels between companies and customers. It encompasses everything from the advertising of medicine, alcohol and food products to how consumer promotions may be formulated. The EU-harmonised Marketing Practices Act provides for sanctions e.g. heavy fines (market disruption fee) that may have considerable financial consequences.
