Transparency & Information Availability in Online Retail

Transparency & Information Availability in Online Retail

The Issue

As a person who truly believes Information is Power, I like to have access to information that is potentially available with online retailers but not shared with the consumers. 

Getting to the specifics - country of manufacture information is not available for most of the products purchased online, whereas the same information is printed and is available to me when I visit a physical store. 

As a consumer, when I am making purchases online, I would like to have access to this information and make an informed decision on purchasing the product.

From a traders standpoint, this will reduce the deviation in information availability between online traders and physical retail stores, and help in creating a level playing field.

Request you to sign and share my petition if you believe that we should have the right information before we purchase the product, and uniform availability of information across channels.
