The company Transportes CCU (TCCU), a subsidiary of the conglomerate linked to the Luksic and Heineken group, denounced a former transport company that operated in Talcahuano, for keeping the proceeds from the sale of its products.
TCCU said that it does not have its own fleet of vehicles, so the transportation and distribution of products is carried out 100% through contractor companies. The firm explained that the contract stipulates that drivers are assigned a route within which they must distribute the merchandise, which must generally be paid in cash, either in cash or with payment documents, depending on the deal with each particular client. The company denounced that the former carrier did not deliver the aforementioned values, for which reason it pointed to the crime of misappropriation.
TCCU said the damage exceeds $368 million. “The investigation carried out by the Public Ministry must establish the total amount, which in any case is greater than 400 monthly tax units,” the company told the court.
