Distribution Contract Audit

The distribution contract allows you to frame the conditions under which your distributors will offer your products and your customer services. 

They are key for several reasons:
 

  • litigation where the claim amounts were several tens / hundreds of millions of euros; 
  • litigation involving many distributors of a network and/or associations of distributors; 
  •  

  • litigation involving many distributors of a network and/or associations of distributors; 
  • litigation of a systemic type, threatening the construction /economic model of a distribution network. 
  •  

You would like to:
 

  • litigation where the claim amounts were several tens / hundreds of millions of euros; 
  • litigation of a systemic type, threatening the construction /economic model of a distribution network.

Method of auditing a distribution contract

We carry out an analysis of distribution contracts at three levels:
 

  • we ensure their legality (competition law, restrictive practices, personal data, sectoral regulation in particular) and qualify the risks and help you measure them;
     
  • we ensure that the existing clauses are efficient, that is to say that they can be applied: if certain clauses are not, we identify them and characterize the difficulties that this will cause in the management of the distribution network;
     
  • litigation of a systemic type, threatening the construction /economic model of a distribution network. 
  •

We provide you with a summary report:
 

  • litigation where the claim amounts were several tens / hundreds of millions of euros;
