Takeover of Géant Casino la Batelière by Parfait: the General Rapporteur indicates that hearings and observations have been conducted as part of a verification of commitments

When the Autorité issued its decision on 22 December 2022 on the acquisition of sole control of the Géant Casino La Batelière hypermarket by the Parfait group, the Parfait group undertook to divest the business of the La Batelière hypermarket. The purpose of the divestitutre commitment was to prevent a duopoly in the hypermarket sector in the “Plaine Foyalaise” area. The Parfait group also undertook to maintain the value of the business to be divested and that of the shopping centre in which the business is located.
