restrictive trade practice

Any agreement between people in a particular trade or business that restricts free trade in a market. For example, several producers may join together to form a cartel and fix prices; or a manufacturer may refuse to supply goods to a retailer if the retailer stocks the products of a rival company.

Restrictive trade practices are generally illegal in the UK and USA.
