RESALE PRICE MAINTENANCE

Resale price maintenance, the practice of a supplier requiring its retail customers not to sell its products below a certain price, is also prohibited. Thus, a manufacturer cannot insist that its retailers do not sell the manufacturer’s products for less than a certain price. Resale price maintenance would also apply where a manufacturer threatens to refuse to supply a retailer who was discounting the manufacturer’s products while others were not.
