REWE GROUP
The Federal Cartel Office has approved, subject to conditions, the agreement between the cooperative REWE GROUP and Migros Zurich regarding the takeover of 40 Tegut stores. The REWE GROUP is permitted to take over 38 sites immediately. A four-year ban on acquisition applies to two further sites. This fulfils a key prerequisite for the implementation of the planned future arrangement between REWE and PENNY for the Tegut sites in Hesse, Bavaria, Thuringia and Lower Saxony.
Travel and Tourism
The DERTOUR Group has successfully completed the acquisition of the Hotelplan Group. This includes the travel agency and tour operator business in Switzerland, Germany and the UK. The exception is the holiday home specialist Interhome, which is being taken over by the HomeToGo Group. This means that the popular and traditional travel brands of the Hotelplan Group are now part of the DERTOUR Group.
