  • Response: Just Eat Takeaway.Com N. V
    NON- CONFIDENTIAL JUST EAT TAKEAWAY.COM Submission to the CMA in response to its request for views on its Provisional Findings in relation to the Amazon/Deliveroo merger inquiry 1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1. In line with the Notice of provisional findings made under Rule 11.3 of the Competition and Markets Authority ("CMA") Rules of Procedure published on the CMA website, Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V. ("JETA") submits its views on the provisional findings of the CMA dated 16 April 2020 (the "Provisional Findings") regarding the anticipated acquisition by Amazon.com BV Investment Holding LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc. ("Amazon") of certain rights and minority shareholding of Roofoods Ltd ("Deliveroo") (the "Transaction"). 2. In the Provisional Findings, the CMA has concluded that the Transaction would not be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition ("SLC") in either the market for online restaurant platforms or the market for online convenience groceries ("OCG")1 on the basis that, as a result of the Coronavirus ("COVID-19") crisis, Deliveroo is likely to exit the market unless it receives the additional funding available through the Transaction. The CMA has also provisionally found that no less anti-competitive investors were available. 3. JETA considers that this is an unprecedented decision by the CMA and questions whether it is appropriate in the current market circumstances. In its Phase 1 Decision, dated 11 December 20192, the CMA found that the Transaction gives rise to a realistic prospect of an SLC as a result of horizontal effects in the supply of food platforms and OCG in the UK.

  • Food Delivery Platforms: Will They Eat the Restaurant Industry's Lunch?
    Food Delivery Platforms: Will they eat the restaurant industry’s lunch? On-demand food delivery platforms have exploded in popularity across both the emerging and developed world. For those restaurant businesses which successfully cater to at-home consumers, delivery has the potential to be a highly valuable source of incremental revenues, albeit typically at a lower margin. Over the longer term, the concentration of customer demand through the dominant ordering platforms raises concerns over the bargaining power of these platforms, their singular control of customer data, and even their potential for vertical integration. Nonetheless, we believe that restaurant businesses have no choice but to embrace this high-growth channel whilst working towards the ideal long-term solution of in-house digital ordering capabilities.
