Sherwin-Williams Undisclosed Supply Chain Surcharge Complaint

March 30, 2022

Supply chain difficulties have plagued businesses since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. The complaint for this class action alleges that the Sherwin-Williams Company has “covertly” added a 4% Supply Chain Surcharge to its sales transactions, which it claims customers only find out about “at the cash register once it’s often too late … to rescind their purchases.” In fact, the complaint alleges, customers are often unaware that they’ve been charged this add-on amount until they’ve already checked out and paid for their purchases.
