The Ministry of Industry, Entrepreneurship, Trade, and Innovation (MINTI) reported significant advancements in bolstering market supervision and safeguarding consumer rights throughout 2026. A key development was the enactment of the Law on the Central Market Supervision Inspectorate in June 2026, which prompted MINTI to elevate its focus on enhancing inspection efficiency, reinforcing overall market control, and ensuring prompt resolution of citizen complaints. According to official announcements, the Central Market Supervision Inspectorate (IQMT) undertook substantial oversight efforts during the first half of 2026.
These efforts included conducting over 3,000 inspections spanning critical sectors. The scope of these checks was broad, encompassing areas such as the derivatives oil market, general product safety standards, general market supervision, and direct consumer protection initiatives. These robust inspection activities underscore MINTI’s commitment to maintaining integrity across the commercial landscape.
The detailed supervision allows authorities to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities before they affect the public. By strengthening oversight mechanisms, the Ministry aims to build greater trust between producers, traders, and the end consumer. The consistent application of regulatory power ensures that market participants adhere to established legal frameworks.
This proactive approach not only safeguards consumer interests but also contributes to the stability and reliability of the entire national market. MINTI continues to leverage the enhanced mandate of the IQMT to ensure a transparent and secure trading environment for all stakeholders.
