Correos v Agencia L

European sources have reported that “Agencia L, the Spanish company which handles business correspondence, has broken its exclusive contract with Correos y Telegrafos, the Spanish state-owned postal operator, as a result of ‘increasing unfair competition practices’, which, according to Correos, the company has implemented in recent months through an ‘illegal discounts policy’. Agencia L, which collected and franked business correspondence on behalf of Correos, plans to sign a new contract with ViaPostal, a big rival of Correos. It also intends to take legal action against the state-owned postal operator.”
