Amazon could face probe over treatment of UK grocery suppliers, watchdog says

Britain’s grocery regulator on Thursday threatened Amazon with a formal investigation if it does not improve its compliance with an industry code designed to protect suppliers.

The Groceries Code Adjudicator (GCA) said its 2024 annual survey found that less than half of respondents directly supplying Amazon believed the U.S. giant “consistently” or “mostly” complied with the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP).
