The government of Togo has approved a draft law to reform competition and consumer protection rules. The decision was made during a Council of Ministers meeting on April 1, 2026. The reform aims to update the outdated 1999 legal framework to match modern economic changes. It comes as trade expands and digital business activities grow across the region. The new law will regulate anti-competitive practices such as cartels and abuse of dominance. It will also promote fair pricing while improving transparency in transactions. A national commission will be created to enforce the new rules effectively. Officials say the reform will boost investor confidence and strengthen the country’s economy.
