Consumer Affairs Victoria has initiated a new Supreme Court application seeking to shut down budget retailer Panda Mart indefinitely, according to multiple reports. The action is brought by the consumer regulator through the Victorian Supreme Court process, and it requests an ongoing closure rather than a limited-term remedy. The reports are aligned in describing the case as a fresh bid by Consumer Affairs Victoria to stop the retailer’s operations permanently or for an indefinite period. While the summaries provided do not outline the underlying allegations or legal grounds, they consistently state that the regulator is seeking a Supreme Court order specifically targeting Panda Mart. The matters are presented as part of the regulator’s enforcement approach, indicating that legal action is underway in the court system. The coverage from Brisbane Times, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age does not indicate the retailer’s response or the court’s scheduling or outcome at this stage. The case therefore remains in the application phase as reported, with proceedings to determine whether the requested indefinite closure is ordered.
