On 5 January 2015, the CMA referred the completed acquisition by Pork Farms Caspian Limited of the chilled savoury pastry business of Kerry Foods Limited for an in-depth (phase 2) merger investigation: 1. In exercise of its duty under section 22(1) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the Act) the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) believes that it is or may be the case that: (a) a relevant merger situation has been created, in that: (i) enterprises carried on by or under the control of Pork Farms Group Limited (formerly named Poppy Acquisition Limited) have ceased to be distinct from the chilled savoury pastry business carried on by or under the control of Kerry Foods Limited; and (ii) the condition specified in section 23(1)(b) of the Act is satisfied; and (b) the creation of that situation has resulted, or may be expected to result, in a substantial lessening of competition within a market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or services, including in: (i) the branded, own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of cold pies; (ii) the own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of sausage rolls, pasties and slices (when considered in combination), and the branded, own label and convenience retail segments of the supply of sausage rolls (when considered individually); and (iii) the own label retail segment of the supply of hot pies.

  • Pork Farms / Kerry Foods: Summary of Hearing with Samworth on 4 March 2015
    PORK FARMS CASPIAN / KERRY FOODS MERGER INQUIRY Summary of hearing with Walker and Sons, Ginsters of Cornwall and Tamar Foods, divisions of Samworth Brothers Limited on 4 March 2015 Background 1. Samworth Brothers (Samworth) said it was a privately owned business operating primarily in the manufacture of chilled food. Samworth ran a number of operating divisions which all had a high degree of autonomy. 2. Samworth explained that within the CSP market it operated three main divisions which supplied a wide range of major retailers: (a) Walker and Son (Walkers) predominantly manufactured own-label and branded pork pies ([]% of output). (b) Tamar Foods (Tamar) predominantly manufactured slices and pasties. (c) Ginsters of Cornwall (Ginsters) predominantly manufactured the Ginsters Brand ([]%), although there was some own-label production ([]%). Other divisions within the Samworth Group manufactured some branded product for Ginsters. 3. Samworth explained that one Division would respond to tenders for limited business.1 In tenders for cross category business Samworth would try to create the best customer proposition for the retailer, presenting a single offer. Samworth said that it tried to avoid duplicating investment around the Group by taking into account which Division / site: (a) should lead the negotiation as they had a trading relationship with the retailer, even if the product would be manufactured elsewhere in the Group; (b) specialised in manufacture of the particular product; and 1 For example, if the tender was for cold pies, then Tamar would respond. (c) had the capacity to handle the potential new business. 4. Samworth explained that, within savoury pastry, [] at that time.

  • Barker-2020-Lockdown-Leicester-1
    Lockdown Leicester: notes from a pandemic Michael Barker First published in the UK, October 2, 2020 By Hextall Press, Evington, Leicester HEXTALL PRESS 2 Introduction “After weathering the initial onslaught of Covid-19, we can’t go back to normal. Normal is what led to this, and more of it means there will be more pandemics, and they could well be worse.” This is the measured conclusions of the influential scientific journalist, Debora MacKenzie, who is the author of the recent book The Pandemic that Never Should Have Happened and How to Stop the Next One. Moving forward “We have to take the obvious preventive measures,” she says, to protect our society from future pandemics. But her conclusions fail to offer up solutions for how we might overcome the limitations of the old normal. Like the elephant in the room, missing from MacKenzie’s many recommendations is the most the obvious preventive measure, that is ensuring the thoroughgoing democratisation of political decision-making processes. A transformative action that can only be achieved by ordinary people rising- up and pushing forward a global transition to the type of socialist society whereby human needs direct political choices not the need to make profit.1 This perpetual fight for socialism is taking place in workplaces and communities across the world, and this book with its focus on Leicester, has been published as a small contribution towards building this struggle. Throughout the pandemic I have been writing for my blog (“Thoughts of a Leicester Socialist”), and the following text comprises all the posts that I wrote over a six-month period from mid-March onwards.2 When the pandemic began no one knew that Leicester would become the first city in the UK to re-enter lockdown in late June – and from that day right through to today (and no doubt much longer) people have been banned from meeting people from outside their own households in their own backyards.
