Topic 6: Australian Consumer Law Topic 7(1): Contract Law - Part 1 Question 1 Chan owns a popular Chinese restaurant called the Jade Palace located in a busy shopping area in Adelaide. There are also some other competing Chinese restaurants in the same street. Chan's restaurant had been operating for 12 months, and to attract more customers to his restaurant he recently placed a large sign in the window of his restaurant advertising his food as follows: Adelaide's Best Traditional Chinese Food All Made with Locally Sourced Ingredients. Lee, the proprietor of the Chinese restaurant called the Silver Dragon in the same street as the Jade Palace, believes that Chan's sign contains inaccurate information, particularly where it states 'locally sourced ingredients'. Lee says it was not possible to obtain many of the traditional ingredients used in Chinese food from local sources. For example, many of the sauces and spices are often imported. Also many dried foods such as mushrooms, prawns and other seafoods cannot be obtained locally because there is no industry in Adelaide that makes them there. Near Chan's restaurant is a wholesale business called "All Chinese Imports". Lee knows that Chan often obtains many of the ingredients that he uses in his Chinese food from All Chinese Imports. However, whenever possible, Chan also buys the vegetables he uses in the restaurant from local growers. As far as Chan is concerned, if he tries to buy his vegetables from local growers he is supporting local industry and therefore entitled to use the words 'locally sourced ingredients' in his advertising. 2LAWS 1018 Business Law Assignment April 2021 3 Lee is threatening to report Chan to the 'consumer complaints watchdog' since he believes that Chan's sign is false, and that Chan is trying to deceive members of the public and so is breaching the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).
