Supermarke­t accused of Nutella fraud

-

French fraud authoritie­s on Thursday accused supermarke­t chain Intermarch­e of illegally selling Nutella below cost, after heavy discounts had sparked a shopping frenzy.

The DGCCRF fraud watchdog said the firm could face a fine of à375 000 (R5.3-million).

Videos of shoppers jostling for cut-price tubs of the spread — and Pampers nappies, Carte Noire coffee and Perrier water — went viral last month.
