Mission & Interests

Goals: Consumers United/Consumatorii Uniți is a non-governmental organization, created by consumers for consumers and aims to defend and promote consumer rights, both domestically and internationally. The association is a Romanian legal entity with no patrimonial and apolitical purpose. Our belief is that all consumers have the right to access safe and quality goods and services, to obtain clear information about the products and services they purchase and to be treated correctly by traders. These elements, together with consumer protection laws and regulations, enable consumers to make the best choices based on their interests and ensure that they are not abused or misled by traders, companies, corporations. But it is difficult for individual consumers to make their voices heard, to make changes or to gain justice. That's why the Consumers United Association is here to provide them with effective solutions if things don't go well.
