The Federal Trade Commission is extending by 30 days the deadline to submit comments as part of the agency’s inquiry into supply chain disruptions. The deadline was originally January 29, 2022; it is now February 28, 2022.

The FTC announced in November that it would accept comments on how supply chain issues are affecting competition in consumer goods markets. These comments provide an opportunity for market participants to surface additional issues and examples of how supply chain disruptions are affecting competition. In response to requests from potential commenters for an extension, the FTC is providing additional time.

The Federal Trade Commission works to promote competition, and protect and educate consumers. You can learn more about how competition benefits consumers or file an antitrust complaint.
