  • Notice of De-Designation of Ocado Group Plc from the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009
    21 January 2020 Notice of De-designation of Ocado Group plc from the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 Introduction and background 1. The Competition Commission (CC) published its final report on the Market Investigation into the supply of groceries in the UK on 30 April 2008.1 The CC found adverse effects on competition arising in several areas including the potential exercise of buyer power in relation to suppliers of grocery retailers, and concerns regarding the use of restrictive covenants in concentrated local markets. To address the first of these concerns, the CC implemented the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 (the Order). The Order listed, at Schedule 2, the initial ten groceries retailers to whom the Order applied. Subsequently, in November 2018, two further retailers were designated, including Ocado Group plc.2 2. Pursuant to a corporate restructuring, in particular the creation of a joint venture with M&S Holdings Ltd, Ocado Group plc no longer carries out the retail supply of Groceries in the UK such that it no longer meets the £1bn turnover threshold for designation under the Order and nor does it have sole control over the Ocado entity which does meet the threshold. The retail activities are now carried out by Ocado Retail Ltd and on 16 October 2019, the CMA designated Ocado Retail Ltd under the Order. 3. Following that designation, a review under s162 of the Enterprise Act 2002 was launched to determine whether Ocado Group plc should cease to be a designated retailer under the Order. 4.
