In an interview with Anaba reporter, Saeed Derakhshani emphasized that cheap selling was never and is not a crime, and added: The Union of Supermarket Owners welcomes and supports cheap selling.

Cheap sale is approved
The head of the Traditional Dairy Sellers Union also said: The cheap sale of trade units is fully approved, but the cheap sale of chain stores is our objection and concern.
Ali Rajabi Borzabadi, in an interview with the economic reporter of Anna news agency, stated that this union has no objection to the cheap sales of its trade unions, and stated: We are completely concerned about the cheap sales of the chain stores that are around the dairy trade unions, and in this case, the officials of the unions and the Ministry of Industry, Mining and Trade, we request follow-up.
He added: Trade unions usually cannot make large purchases like chain stores and apply discounts on goods due to their small size and low financial strength.
Pointing out that large purchases by chain stores cause production and distribution companies to offer them significant discounts, Rajabi clarified: This creates the basis for cheap sales by chain stores and actually hurts small trade units.

He added: “Otherwise, cheap selling is supported by the inspection of guilds, and its example can be seen in shops that widely auction their goods.”
