The National Authority for Trade and Consumer Protection (NKFH) has fined local units of food delivery company Wolt HUF 200m for violations (EUR 514,674), the watchdog said on Thursday.

Wolt Services Magyarország delivered alcohol and energy drinks to minors, violated rules on the display of discounted prices and failed to inform customers about contact details before issuing a receipt.

Wolt Magyarország’s contact information for complaints was out of date. A probe of Wolt’s local businesses was launched as all big food delivery companies in Hungary came under scrutiny because of an increase in complaints. Food safety and occupational safety probes of Wolt are also underway.
