It's fascinating that this was downvoted. What the comment above is suggesting is literally a planned economy.

How would these "consumer groups" even work? Would they be democratically elected? Appointed by governments? How would they be insulated from pressure from companies trying to suppress competition? It would inevitably lead to a thoroughly inefficient and corrupt system...
