Banangigant får forbud mod eksklusivaftaler

EU-kommissionen har givet grønt lys til en sammenlægning af Chiquita International og Fyffes - en fusionen der vil skabe verdens største bananproducerende virksomhed. Godkendelsen er betinget af, at selskabet ikke må indgå eksklusivaftaler med rederier.

EU-kommissionen slår i sin såkaldte Fase 1 godkendelse fast, at der fortsat vil være konkurrence nok på markedet til, at forbrugerne ikke skal frygte højere priser som følge af fusionen.

Men Kommissionen er bekymret for, at det fusionerede selskab vil få for stor forhandlingsstyrke overfor rederierne. Derfor er fusionen betingelse af, at amerikanske Chiquita og irske Fyffes ikke indgår eksklusivaftaler med rederier eller give dem noget incitament til at undlade at afskibe konkurrenternes produkter.

Helt specifikt kræver Kommissionen, at Fyffes opsiger sin nuværende eksklusivaftale med Maersk Line.

Chiquita og Fyffes er i dag de to største leverandører af friske bananer til Europa med et samlet salg på 160 mio. kasser bananer. På verdensplan har de to selskaber en markedsandel på 14 procent.

De to selskabers aktionærer har endnu ikke godkendt fusionen.
