Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.8880 — Oetker/Henkell/Freixenet)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2018/C 230/08)

1.   
On 22 June 2018, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1).
This notification concerns the following undertakings:






—


Henkell International GmbH (‘Henkell’, Germany), controlled by Dr. August Oetker KG (‘Oetker’, Germany),










—


Freixenet, SA (‘Freixenet’, Spain).




Oetker acquires — through its wholly-owned subsidiary Henkell — within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of Freixenet.
The concentration is accomplished by way of purchase of shares.


2.   
The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Henkell: production and sale of sparkling wine, wine and spirits,
—   for Oetker: manufacturer, supplier and distributor of food products, provider of shipping services, owner of specialised outlets for catering and publishing of cookbooks,
—   for Freixenet: production and sale of sparkling wine and still wine.


3.   

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved.



4.   
The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. The following reference should always be specified:
