A supply contract is a contract whereby one party, called the supplier, undertakes to transfer ownership of and deliver a specified quantity of goods one or more times after the conclusion of the contract or on a continuous basis or to provide certain services at one or more times after the conclusion of the contract or on a constant basis, and the other party, called the recipient, undertakes to take delivery of the goods or services and to pay for them.

Challenging contraventions and suspension of work.
The ANPC has the right to initiate thematic controls, without the complaint of any consumer, in order to identify and sanction certain irregularities.
The controls carried out by the ANPC may result in the sanctioning of economic operators if certain irregularities are discovered. They aim to ensure the conformity of services and products and compliance with consumer protection regulations.
If you consider that the sanction imposed by the ANPC team is not legal, you can appeal within 15 days by filing a complaint with the court in whose jurisdiction the offense was committed.
