The collusion between BPI in the granting of import permits of garlic and the cartel caused the price of garlic to spike by as much as P350,00 per kg. About 73% of garlic is imported and the balance comes from local production.
A single preferred group of 4 importers led by by trader Lilian Cruz aka Leah Cruz cornered 75% of the garlic importation, reports DOJ (headed by another Lilian) There used to be 4 importers.
DOJ recommends that the National Garlic Action team should be abolished instead
