Overview

• Indecopi’s Consumer Protection Commission in Piura sanctioned Cineplanet after finding the food-entry restriction disproportionate.
• The resolution cites violations of reasonableness and proportionality because the hamburgers were similar to hot dogs sold on-site.
• Similarity must be assessed by ingredients, accompaniments, presentation, size, and consumption conditions rather than brand alone.
• The case identifies the complainant as Aníbal Monzón and notes that similar practices affected other customers.
• RESOLUCIÓN N.º 688-2025/INDECOPI-PIU allows only an appeal under Decreto Legislativo Nº 807, and if upheld, the criteria could guide cinema food policies nationwide.
