Amman:The Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Supply has announced plans to increase market monitoring efforts during the 'White Friday' discount season. This move is aimed at strengthening field inspections and ensuring compliance with sales regulations across markets nationwide.
According to Jordan News Agency, the ministry's initiative seeks to protect consumer rights, ensure the credibility of commercial and promotional offers, and verify the adherence of economic establishments to sales and discount regulations. The ministry emphasized that inspection teams will closely monitor commercial and promotional offers to detect any advertising scams, particularly those on social media.
The ministry has committed to taking firm action against any violations discovered through online monitoring efforts. It stressed that all discounts must be legally justified to prevent consumer exploitation during this busy shopping period. Traders are required to clearly display prices before and after discounts to maintain transparency, and any deceptive tactics aimed at misleading consumers are strictly prohibited.
Additionally, the ministry urges citizens to verify the authenticity of offers, compare prices, and keep purchase receipts. The public is encouraged to report complaints, violations, or misleading advertisements by calling the direct complaints hotline at 065629045 or via WhatsApp at 0797527832.
