It makes sure businesses compete fairly, preventing unfair practices like price-fixing or monopolies, which can harm consumers and the economy. The CCPC also enforces consumer rights, investigates scams, and ensures products and services meet safety standards. Its goal is to create a marketplace where consumers have choices, fair prices, and are protected against unfair treatment by businesses.
