Controversy

On October 28, the National Economic Prosecutor denounced Empresas CMPC of having colluded with competitor SCA to allocate market shares and fixing prices for the sale of products from the category of tissue paper, which quickly became known as the Confort Cartel (toilet paper being known as confort in Chile). For this reason, this company decided to suspend the advertising of these three brands associated with the campaign; while representatives of the foundation said that CMPC will maintain its contribution, but avoid any public display to prevent harm to the Telethon, given the prestige that the collusion case has caused to its corporate image.
